Just wondering if anyone knows of a good CD label maker?

A caution:
When I bought my Plextor drive, Plextor recommended against using labels
because they can introduce wobble and therefore, mistracking. This would
be particularly eggregious with some of today's cheap CD drives that
don't clamp the disk firmly in place. In fact, I'm swearing off Sony
CDRs because they wobble in my brand new RCA clock radio/CD and skip as
a result. Sony disks are also skipping in my Hyundai car stereo, but I'm
not sure that this is the cause yet.

I'm highly experienced in audio, and it was pretty hellish for me to
sleuth this out before I found the cause. The cure was to record on a
Fuji disk (made by the granddaddy of CDR makers: Taiyo Yuden).

Anyway, I'd still follow Plextor's advice, especially when playing CDs
in drives that aren't component-quality.

Of course, all this is no reason against making tray inserts, etc., with
software. But I'm resigned to writing on the disks with Sharpies. There
are CDs that you can print in an ink jet printer; you can buy Taiyo
Yudens, as well as other disk brands, in bulk designed for this. I don't
know if they're OK.

Make sense?
