Have you seen this yak?

After successfully doing almost nothing but DVDs for others recently, I am now offering this service directly. Contact us for all your DVD authoring needs. Complex UI scripting, subtitles, closed captions, PAL, we can do it all.
Your DVD is what customers see. It should be as good as your video.
Dont settle for consumer-grade authoring programs after spending thousands on production. I can get your production to a full-featured, crafted, memorable DVD quickly. Now using an 8 core, 8 GB Mac Pro for the fastest turnaround in town.
