It's important to realize from the start that the  duplication and replication process is the same, regardless of content, as well as the differences between the CD duplication and replication process.

The duplication of CDs refers to burned CDs, such  as the CD burner with a personal computer.  The  burned audio CDs have playability issues in some CD players, normally car stereos, portable CD players, and even older types of CD players.

The duplication of CDs has much faster turn times, simply because a stamp doesn't need to be made. The process of duplication can start as soon as the master is received, where the replication process doesn't start for 5 - 7 days, during which time a glass master and stamper must be made.

When done locally with a personal computer, you can duplicate an audio or data CD in just a couple of minutes.  To duplicate a CD, you must have a computer with a CD-RW drive.  This drive copies  the CD disks, and without one - you simply cannot copy disks.
