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.

you mean for promo cds or for your cd collection?
promo cds
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!

How about making some sort of template to partially cover a cd and then spray over with spraypaint? Wow this sounds cool, gunna try that..
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.
