used CD labels back in the 90's - its a sticker & stickers dont last

on a few discs the sticker pulled the entire coating off the discs
(these discs were 10yrs oldish - so it kills the shelf life of the disc)

to make your discs 'pretty' - thermal printers are cheap ($100ish)
it might be the only way to go
