I've heard (and read) that alcohol solvent used in permanent markers (ie sharpies) can eat through the protective top coat of cdr, thereby destroying them. On one hand, I take this to heart and don't writing on my discs anymore. I writing on the inner hub and for shns I give the discs a volume number and archive them in MS Access. On the other hand, I have some shn discs that are over 3 years old and they still copy and extract fine.
Since there are other ways of doing it, I would avoid writing on the disc surface. my $.02 George -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of adam meyer Sent: Monday, February 25, 2002 12:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [etree] sharpies..please read! etree, Hey all. I have always used a fine tip sharpie to label my cd-r's that I have my shns archived on. Can this in any way damage the cd's? How do you label your shows? Any feedback is much appreciated.
