Its not real purdy, but Lightscribe is OK if you are making demos. Its grayscale in whatever color CD/DVD you print it on. It is a process where a Lightscribe DVD burner burns an image onto the top of the disc. You actually insert the CD/DVD upside down. It can take up to 1/2 hour to burn a graphically intensive one. The trick to speeding it up is to keep all the graphics contained in a circular path like the middle song on a vinyl album when you are looking at the rings.

I use it for my demos.

You want to be careful with a sharpie. Depending on the Cd, or dvd, the lettering can show through the disk and cause it to skip.

The labels can cause the CD not to play right in certain players, I had some trouble with them. Lightscribe is good if ya keep it simple.

I had a terrible time with printed labels. Sometimes a disk would go bad 1/2 hour into it. Handing out bad disks is not good PR and you really can't spend the time to test each one 100%, let alone after you put a label on it.
