My church was recording in ACID, then rendering the file into tracks and burning a master CD for duplication.  I convinced the powers that be to buy a CD recorder (a Sony is what they got) and we just create tracks on the fly as we record.  That produces an instant master that's good enough for all practical purposes.  We now can stuff that in the CD/DVD duplicator and have copies available right after the service instead of having people put their names on a waiting list to pick up next week.  It's better, marketing-wise.
