There are many things that i don't understand of the "Releases", like:

DIY: ?
Pro-Tape: Tape?
Pro-CDr: CDr?
Floppy Release: is like a Diskete for Old Computers?
Xeroxed: Something of the printing of a Tape?
Pro printed tapes: Printing Tapes?
Regular Tapes/Covers:?
Pro glossy covers:?
Pro-duplicated cassette:?
Shell with on-body print: I know that the shell is the part of the tape, the other thing is the printing?
Pro-printed b/w covers:?
b/w covers: Black and White covers?


Well mainly this was a Tape language

DIY: Do it yourself
Pro-tape/Pro-cdr: Not DIY tape/cdr
Xeroxed: Copied in a copy machine/xerox machine
Pro-printed means basically went to let's say, an offset printing company and had them print it
B/W: Black and white

So, when labels say "Pro-CDr" means that they didn't make that, like they sended to made to another guy and they sell it?


My English is not very Good

I'm not sure about that one.

It means it's duplicated by a production company. It's cheaper than replication and still lasts longer than your normal cd-r you buy at the store.

What, do they press them or just burn them?

and for the rest that isn't answered:


Pro printed tapes: Printing Tapes? talking about the J-card. It's been pro=printed and not diy and cut out and stuck in.

Regular Tapes/Covers:? this I'm not too sure about but I'm thinking it means it's your standard fair of diy tapes with cut out diy j-cards.

Pro glossy covers:? covers that are pro printed and just happen to be high quality glossy paper

Pro-duplicated cassette:? same thing as pro duplicated cd. a production company runs them off for you.

Shell with on-body print: I know that the shell is the part of the tape, the other thing is the printing? meaning the print is on the tape body.

Pro-printed b/w covers:? black and white pro-printed.
b/w covers: Black and White covers? yes black and white.


anything pro-printed means someone paid someone money to do the shit correctly and to a higher quality than perhaps your standard diy affair... not that all diy is bad or poor quality.

they burn them off your master copy instead of press them like replication.

And what is a J-Card?

the cover of the tape. the thing with all the information on it. thew only piece of paper with the tape.



this:

Thanks
Another word:
-Uncut Buisness-Card CDr: ? something like http://www.discogs.com/Bloody-Cunt-The- ... se/3055909 and http://www.discogs.com/F%C3%A6kal-Omsor ... se/3038650

had never heard of that but what it looks like is like a slipcase cd.

hell it might just be a cover with the information on the back. (like a one panel insert/cover but probably on cardstock instead of paper) and the cd-r is probably pro-dupilcated.

Like a Cardboard into the CD

What means that a release is "Hand Numbered"?

Usually that the release is printed in a limited amount of copies and that each copy carry a number.
Examples: 1 / 150, 5 of 666 or whatever.
