The mini CD-ROM is most commonly used for direct mailing and trade show give-away. It is ideal for distribution of sales catalogs, product brochures or even a short video.
The Mini CD represents the middle ground between a standard CD and a card CD. With 180MB it holds enough for most purposes and the smaller physical size offers many advantages in distribution.
A 180 Mb Mini-CD holds:
- 5,400 PDF pages
- 1800-7200 HTML pages
- 15 minutes of MPEG Video
- 15 minutes of CD-Audio or 170 minutes of MP3
- 900 Power Point slides
Size matters! In trade shows the smaller size means less bulk to carry around. The mini CD is small enough to easily fit a shirt pocket. For direct mailings, the mini CD is small enough to fit a regular business envelope!
If you like the idea of a card sized CD but your content exceeds 50MB, the mini CD-ROM is usually the best alternative. |
