Years ago I used a similar program to make labels for CDs, and I
found them to be expensive and they peeled off easily. Of course that
was years ago, so maybe things have changed. I do remember that it
was not recommended to apply a label to a DVD, since it would
unbalance it and make the DVD unreadable.
Just a thought M.L., but have you considered a CD/DVD printer?
Epson makes the R260 which replaces the R220 (my printer) and they go
for $90.
I have been using my R220 now for over a year, and I love it. It
prints on printable CD/DVDs, and they cost a few cents more than a
regular blank disk. I use the better quality blank media....Verbatim
DataLife Plus printable disks, and I just ordered some single layer
DVDs from Meritline for 41¢ a piece.
These blank disks have a special top coating that allows
printing, and the coatings have never come off on me. The self stick
labels I used to print would come off over time, making the disk
unreadable. At 18¢ per self stick label, it's cheaper to buy the
printable disks and print on them as opposed to buying the labels,
printing on them, and sticking them on and hoping they don't come
off.
Also, the R260 comes with software that allows you to design your
own label, including importing your own images. It perfectly aligns
the template with the disk, so you rarely have an alignment problem.
Anyway, I just thought I'd mention it.
