This is going to really help out the DVD section (I'm not sure the audio people care much, but I may be wrong)
Actually Sharing the Groove had a very active CD cover forum,with hardly any DVD. 2-4 MB????? What the ---? Are these BMP or JPEG? I have done a thousand CD covers,slimline format,2 pieces at 100 to 150 kb on average,as jpegs. Any resolution beyond 200 is a waste of ink,I get VERY sharp photo glossy prints from covers with res settings as low as 130,and for the sake of content and design sometimes go as low as 120. I replaced my now killed 6 ink canon with a 6 ink epson

I CAN scan a cruddy newspaper pic and get a crappy image for a cover,even though it has a res of 400,and is a 350 kb file. as a photographer I like resolution for 11x14 prints, but for a cd/dvd the pics are much smaller.
