I have to agree there with you Darren, as I have had cdr's left in my car
that have had, for lack of a better term, "data melt off ". I think the
biggest advantage of having a cd or dvd release from bsdmall is the well
designed and professional look of the packaging and disks themself. I find
customers to be much more receptive when I have a pressed disk and not a cdr
I printed a label on myself, or worse in a pinch a cdr with hand written
label (though my hand writing is not very good). I think it is a must for
working around customer machines, though cdrs are still fine for home use.
Just my 2 cents,
