Abstract
This invention is directed to a method and system of managing the processing and removal of media such as CD's and DVD's through a media processing device having a management database and a storage unit for storing processed media. The media processing system comprises an administrator PC, a plurality of user PCs, and a disc publisher interconnected through a LAN. The media processing device has a server function which writes to recordable media for forming processed media using media production data generated from media production commands from the user PCs. A user or system administrator can remove processed media from the media storage unit by entering user or system administrator authentication data into the system. If the system administrator removes all processed media from the media storage unit an e-mail message is sent to each user linked through the management database to the media processed by such user.
