Today new color DVDs compatible with the LightScribe disc labeling system became available. Like all LighScribe media they can have labels burned into them using a special type of burner. Previously LightScribe DVDs were only available with a gold background. The new discs add red, orange, yellow, blue, and green.

Cool, lightscribe disks are pretty neat and nice when you want to label something without have to print and stick a label correctly.
Its nice to see them starting to color them differently.

Why is there a difference between a DVD and CD in this regard? Why does color make a difference as far as the media functioning correctly, I thought as long as the disk was transparent it was fine regardless of color, sex, creed, or national origin? I mean aren't most DVD's blue, purple, or clear? I bought a big spindle of the colored CD-R's over a year ago and they really aren't that impressive. I think they're verbatium lightscribes though.
And what is going on with these aggravating drop down freaking banners? I kept clicking the damn thing and it wouldn't close every time I navigate to a new page I have to hunt for the freaking [X] to close the stupid thing. It doesn't make me want to buy that product, if anything it makes me despise the damn product.

They're offered in a variety of brands, including HP, Imation, Memorex, Philips, and Verbatim.
Hopefully also tayio yuden eventually? All I can find are inkjet and thermal, not even just a regular clear coat surface.

The popup ads started in mid may and seemed to have ended recently. Unfortunately it seems that they have come back, check here for more info- http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/664079

It's a novelty. I've used a few to burn stuff for family members. I like the "oohs" and "Ahhs" my grandparents make when they see a lightscribed disc I made for them...lol. But the price never justified buying a spindle of them for my own personal use.

What software do you people find the most easy to use with lightscribe. I currently use Roxio but I am unable to move or edit the picture once I grab the image to print on the background. So my images are off center or cut off but now i am settling for covers that I would have not choosen if I knew what I was doing. I just started using the lightscribe feature a couple of weeks ago.
Is there also a software that allows me to change the shading of the image? Basically almost invert or change a certain feature to be darker/lighter?
Here is hoping people still keep up with OLD news.
Thanks,
edlonwlf
