CD labels

Archived from groups: rec.audio.misc,rec.audio.opinion,rec.audio.pro,rec.audio.tech (More info?)

anybody got a recommendation for blank CD labels that are thick enough to
hide the printing on the CD face. I'm currently using Memorex labels and
have to use two. I use Fuji Film CDR's and haven't yet found any with an all
white front like some of the cheaper ones.

thanks,

Taiyo Yudens and Mitsuis are both available with blank fronts.

Double labels seem like a bad idea to me. One of them is enough to screw
things up on cheaper players that have trouble with undersized motors.

Fuji CDs are made by Taiyo Yuden or at least they use to be.I think they
switched to another company recently.If you go with Taiyo Yuden or Mitsui
you will have no problems.

There are new CD burners which can write a label with the laser
itself. This looks to be the best solution.

Try searching for cdr's on ebay. You can find some really great deals
on either plain silver faced blank, or white face labeled blank cdr's.
Neither of these should let anything come through the label.

There are inkjet printers which can print on the cd's. Some of them are
fairly cheap.
Personally, since my CDR's are now in the hundreds, I just use a pen, my
favorite being Copic .Too black.
