Does anybody have any recommendations for good CD labeling software to use with my iMac7,1 running OS X Version 10.4.10? There are lots of options out there and I have no idea how to evaluate them.

Thanks!

I've learned from experience that putting those paper labels on CDs is a bad idea. If you put them in a slot loading CD drive where there is going to be a lot of heat, they will bubble and often get stuck. If I were going to label CDs any more (I have not in some years) I would get one of those recorder drives that will print/burn the image directly to the front of the CD.

I'm considering a lightscribe drive too. I guess I could use advice on comparing the options in both paper labeling software and lightscribe devices, so that I can decide which direction to go. What's the easiest to use, fastest, best quality product, etc? I will be using it for home movies and music CDs to send to friends, so they will most likely get used in home CD and DVD players...

Thanks Baggss. I just got such sofware (DiskLabel). I printed everything except the CD labels (because of problem lining them up correctly) but had never considered this. Is this that much of a problem??

i had the paper labels too, I ended up not likeing them at all because sometimes washing a cd helps it play, and the paper gets bloated and it doesnt work out well at all!

lightscribe!
