MediaFORM, SwiftCD.com Announce Strategic Alliance

MediaFORM, Inc., a manufacturer of CD-R duplication and production solutions for the audio, video, and data networking industries, and SwiftCD.com, a division of DigitalSwift Corp., have announced a part-nership to integrate MediaFORM’s cdDIRECTOR into SwiftCD’s comprehensive CD duplication and distribution services. According to the announcement, Digital-Swift’s more than 3,000 customers will benefit from greatly enhanced customer service due to the MediaFORM/SwiftCD.com partnership. 

Via the Internet, DigitalSwift will enable businesses to instantly compile custom CDs and distribute them to individual end-users by utilizing MediaFORM cdDIRECTOR. The cdDIRECTOR combines CD-R imaging, mastering, and duplication with in-line color printing and remote client access in an open-architecture environment. 

According to the company, other unique features of cdDIRECTOR include Media-FORM’s patented SmartDRIVE2, which offers advanced anti-piracy features; 12x/ 8x selectable speed configurations; browserbased Java interface for remote access; and an API interface that allows seamless integration of most applications. 

“Our comprehensive research indicated that MediaFORM was the clear choice for our disc-on-demand needs for many reasons,” said Vinnie Jensen, president of DigitalSwift Corp. “Their products are both re-liable and flexible, enabling SwiftCD.com to create and ship individual CDs to order in a matter of minutes, and they offered the most attentive customer service out of all the companies offering similar solutions. Those factors, combined, provided us the best return on our investment.” 

“SwiftCD.com is helping businesses use digital technologies to maximize productivity,” said Jonathan Bradlee, president of MediaFORM. “Their custom CD service provides flexible, cost-effective solutions to their customers. This is the same customer-centric approach we have at MediaFORM, which is why we’re excited to be a part of SwiftCD’s service.”
