On Demand CD

Nippon Columbia service that works as follows: "On-demand CD is a system allowing you to order items that are out of print. Once an order is processed, the music is recorded on a CD-R disc from the master. Jacket is digitally printed to allow faithful representation of the original." Items were to be ordered from online services such as CDJapan, Amazon Japan, and Tower Records. Orders get processed from the manufacturer and shipped to the online service, which then get shipped to you. If you're lucky, items could also be found in stores such as Tower Records for sale upfront. ※ Please Note: This service has officially been discontinued since 31st January 2020 and no more CD-Rs will be processed again from the manufacturer.
