I used those Avery labels for a long time. Right up to the time the 
first one began to peel off the disk. Then I switched to 
inkjet-printable disks.

And I never used Lightscribe disks. I had a Lightscribe drive, but never 
knew where to find Lightscribe disks. Now I see Lightscribe has fallen 
out of fashion. And I noticed that the studios never once used anything 
like Lightscribe to label the disks they publish.
