When I was selling the Park Forest Newsreel DVD's they set me back $10 each,
but DVD burners weren't common then.

DON'T use a sharpie!! The solvents in conventional markers will damage
the disc initially and progressively. There are special DVD markers
formulated
to be safe, that are available. Like, BestBuy has'em.
DVD production costs are paradoxical. Unlike printing, where the cost
per copy goes down as the number of copies increase, the opposite is true
of
DVD's. Short-run production is vastly cheaper than professional long-run
production.
In any production run of less than 1000-1500 DVD's it is much cheaper
to use PC's with burners and pay somebody to feed them discs at minimum
wage than
to use professional production machinery even if you owned the machinery
and could do it at cost.
In New York, there are 100's of little shops stuffed into basements,
apartments, storage warehouses even, pumping out DVD's on orders of 100 to
1000
copies at prices that no production company could ever match. It's a
strange and counterintuitive phenomenon.

Not to mention shortening the lifetime and playability of the discs by
putting on said labels.
Unless placed absoultely perfectly on the disc, a label can cause the
disc to rattle around enough
to not play correctly (those discs spin really fast-- we're talking
centrifuge fast) and the labels
do peel off, often taking the data layer of the disc with it. If you
have a printer that can print
directly on printable discs, great. If you have a recorder with
Lightscribe
http://www.lightscribe.com/, great. Otherwise, use a Sharpie.
