CD labeling software for MAC OSX? (10.3)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am looking for a cd labeling software for OSX. I used to use "click'n'design" but they haven't made a version that runs "natively" for Panther yet. Anyone have any suggestions for a really good labeling software??

Discus comes with Toast Titanium, but you can get it separately and it even has a demo.

UnCoverIt is pretty good too, very similar interface to Discus, runs in Jag & Panther, and cheaper also ($14.99).........

Clik & Design used to work very well, but they be draggin butt on a Panther version......lazy bastards

"disclabel" is a very good disk labeling program. It was recently updated to v2.0 and works quite well in Panther as well as all other versions of OSX. It allows you to put all kinds of graphics and fonts and re-size them on your disk. It also will download itunes play lists so you don't have to re-type them. The download price is $29.95. They also list quite a few different label templates, from various manufactures, so you don't have to waste a lot of labels. Hope this helps.

I second DMurray's suggestion, Disclabel X.
I think it was voted Best Disclabeler for Mac OSX by MacAddict (or MacWorld).

Are you using a printer to print directly on the CD(and if so which printer) or are you printing on a label and then putting it on the CD?

I use Discus and had really good luck with it. Very versatile. Access to any fonts you have on your system as well as any graphics you already have. Of course, it comes with a ton of graphics also. I print directly on CDs with it, but you can use it for labels and jewel case liners as well.

I'm printing the CDs with an Epson Stylus Photo 900. Very nice printer. Very inexpensive also. It all works seamlessly with Panther.
