Re: Best way to store all these downloads?
I also use spindles. And if you take care as AAR.oner said you´re on the safe side. You might have found this sort of ring on the downside of a cd. It takes the surfaces apart. So unless there´s no dirt in between - no problem, as said.
Below: some sort of attempt of printing a cross section of a cd (inner part). No members have liked this post.

I use spools, there must be a better way but it helps to conserve space. sharpies are safe for writing on cdr/dvdr media I just write all over those things. maybe one day I'll live to regret it, but everything has been good for years now.

I use Sharpies too, but it makes sense that the solvents in the ink "may" screw with the ink layer on the CD, although I think it would be unlikely since the CD has a plastic coating over the ink layer. I never gave it much thought, but it can't hurt to be safe. I only write numbers on them anyway and they're only for archiving purposes. I have everything backed up on HDs too.

re: writing on the disc with sharpies...i think it really depends on *quality* of media...also if its an ink-jet printable disc its fine to write on with a sharpie [i should have stated that earlier]...Some silvers will have problems later on if you write on em, atleast it happened to me a few times and why do they always include those stupid little platic rings anyway? absolutely useless No members have liked this post.

And storing in spindles could somewhat give you pain if you´d rather listen to the music than just archive. No members have liked this post.
