Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Estimated project duration: less than 1 week
What I have: I run a small free manuals website;
13gb (8,000 pdf’s) of manuals
What I want to do:
I want to place the manuals on dvds (more memory) to sell to engineers and companies so they can look up relevant manuals when fixing appliances within the customer’s houses.
What I don’t want to happen:
Other people to copy the manuals and resell them or use them in competition against my other website.
What I want from the disks:
Be able to use the existing file structure to find each manual, they are already listed in a family tree by manufacturer and appliance type etc.
The work you will carry out will be to the front end before the user access's the existing family tree of pdfs.
The process:
Each dvd/s will require a product key so only that the user can activate and use the dvd/s:
Dvd/s can only be operated on 1 or 2 pc’s/laptops so other people will have to buy the dvd/s.
The dvd/s are to have some sort of security to stop general people copying the dvd/s (I understand software developers will probably always find a way to hack a dvd).
The process will need to allow me to copy new dvd/s and generate new product keys so I can copy and sell further dvds to new clients (I am a non programmer so will require simple instructions for me to carry this process out).
I will also want to be able to generate different dvds selling only certain sections of the library and as the collection grows, will want to sell a new larger version of the existing library.
Place the company logo and other details on the opening screen when accessing the dvd.
Hence this is about a process I can copy with different pdf collections.
Additional Information:
Similar dvd’s have placed files on the pc to access the pdfs on the dvd. In some cases the pdf names are have been changed so it would be useless for someone to copy the dvd (the actual names being visible when using the disk).
In conclusion:
I already have a dvd with a library of manuals that I want to be able to copy and sell to multiple clients; I don’t want purchasers to be able to easily copy the dvds and redistribute. I need a simple process to show me how to copy the disks, generate product keys, security etc so I can do this myself from home.
This is a very small non profitable business at present and the earnings from disk sales will be low but it is still something I would like to add to my free manuals website if the costs are minimal as it will generate more traffic....................and there lies the question, how and how much?
I've been told it is pretty simple to do but too small for most developers to take on, hence my post!
