We have one of these systems.  It costs $50-100 per cdrom for materials
and operator time to make one cd.  Making a bunch the same would reduce
that some, perhaps to $40 each.  Raw materials cost $20 or so plus some
operator time and software and equipment maintenance.  Altogether a little
more expensive than making a tape.
