    Default What do you guys use for CD labeling

    I was looking into Lightscribe disks but to me it's a hassle to order them. What are some suggestions here for CD labeling. What should and shouldn't be on there? What will make it stand out.

    Promos I usually just bone up a couple hundred dollars for a small batch of professional printed, jacketed CD's, it's a small investment but well worth the professional quality. Really stands out.

    For all other needs, like friends, colleagues, or whatever:



    Fits perfectly, easy to read, and it looks really nice on TaYu CDs.

    Get a stamp kit to label ur CDs or a thermal printer. I have a casio it's pretty good. Buy some genric tayu CDs and find someone with a cd dupicator and start banging cd out. I bought a 8 bay cd dupicator for 250.00 and it's a life saver. Plus I burn the mixes CDs for the local djs in my hood.

    personally, I always avoid stick on labels. .....they have a nasty habit of coming off in slot loading drives!

    Sharpies are for signing boobs, not CDs!

    A friend of mine did that, it was epic.

    But yeah, I've stamped CDs for years. The only ones that have come off were the ones I never really set right. Also, the software I used was never able to calibrate properly with my printer, so it wouldn't always center, but there's gotta be better stuff out there than what I used.
    It's the FAQ. Read it.
