    I have read much discussion regarding the best way to put professional quality labels on CD faces. Unfortunately I only hear the good qualities of the various methods available. I would like to know the negative aspects of such CD labeling systems out there. I use both Mac and PC computers so either OS compatible labeling method is acceptable. I make about 50-100 CDs per month. Thanks in advance Hip Forum friends! Long live live...

    I am not into labeling cd's. I mean, why do it? After awhile that label will fall off, or if it isnt placed exactly right will cause a wobble in the cd. I prefer to use a safe pen that will not bleed through the cd and just write what is on it. Thats good enough for me. Of course, I do this only for the live concerts I have recorded, as I do not record copyrighted stuff.

    I like the good-old-fashioned Sharpie marker myself....
