Barry, good plan.
The one thing I'm fishing for is that you have talked with the printers, 
and the printers have given you the verbal commitment that they will 
definitely be able to turn around the DVDs in time.
(You want to make sure the key person you need to talk to isn't planning 
to take leave on the critical day, or some other thing).
