unfortunately that requires special hardware.



Or else you could just get cd labels


unrelated but humm I think I wanna get myself something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...N82E16817133603

I'm going to guess that the most cost effective way is to pay someone else that has all the equipment to do it.

Present your original material professionally on a CD with custom labeling and graphics. Put together selected songs for special events such as weddings, birthdays or graduation and send them to friends and family.

My sister who is a pro wedding photographer actually gets requests from the couples if she could design a mixed cd for them with cd booklet and stuff and she refuses to do it as it's copyright infringment.

You could use a CD labeler like CD Stomper, but be aware that sticking paper labels makes the discs thicker and heavier, and several CD playerd don't like it (DVD players especially).

The best option is to use printable CD-R's. They're almost the same price as standard CD's and you'll need a printer that can print onto discs like the Canon IP3000 or IP4000.

or you can spend 100 bucks and get it silk screned. im doing it for my band's demo cd. it costs about 100 bucks to do 50 cds, but its alot cheaper after taht. the most expensive was the set up. but once they have the screnes, its cheap as shit

you can silk screen them?! like fuckin shirts?!

thatd be awesome! my dad does that and i have screens, a press, a heater, tons of ink, everything i need to do shirts...

wow any links or anything you could toss me?

i knew a kid in one of my art classes a few years ago who would buy the completely blank CD-Rs (no logos or writing on the top of them) and he'd draw his own designs on them with different colored Sharpie markers. i was flipping through his CD book one day and there were a few CDs that he had copied and then replicated the original design, and you almost couldn't tell it was drawn on with markers.

so if you can draw, do something like that

i'd recommend staying away from the stick-on labels, because they should only be used in certain CD players. i put one in my CD player in my car, and after i took it out after 10 or 15 minutes, the label had gotten all gooey and melted and would have fucked up my entire CD player if i didn't take it out.

why are you using 74 minute cdrs

it's a little trickier than screen printing tee shirts


and sorry don't have any links.

They didn't say you had to use copyrighted material. There are plenty of songs you can download that don't carry a copyright.

haha on kinko's page
