This looks excellent.   Basically you upload an iso of the data dvd, and
they burn and ship it on demand for < $10/copy.    This is perfect.  I could
just do this once every time we have a major release.   I can add a few
dollars on each DVD, to pay whoever actually does the work of putting
together the ISO, updating it, etc.
