You can get CD's on demand, A World of Software - Softwide here in the UK does just that and even features one of our titles, LiSA the speaking email assistant. Their website is at http://www.softwide.com

I was confused as to why the CD's or DVD's are not made completely on demand? They have way lot less polygraphy on them, and they are intrincically digital. But then I thought, there must be much less titles of them in the top 80% of sales, than there will be of the books. So by keeping, say 1000 preprinted titles in stock a small DVD shop with no Internet can be in business.
