The labeling system works like a charm. To the other person riffing on the applicator, I can't see why that's the case.

This kit a dummy proofed and I get no air bubbles at all. SInce the labels go all the way to the center, the cd/dvd plastic center groove goes down a little bit. So you have to press the label around the very center. Again, this ain't the labeling systems fault, but the way the way cd/dvds are made. The labels are still stuck well in the center, but needs a loving touch to get it stuck even harder.

The labels stick VERY well! It's very difficult to get it to slide off. This is improtant b/c a dvd player can heat up and melt the label right off. So far, no problems with this label.

My only grouch is that these labels are expensive. Plus, my laser printer ink (Samsung) doesn't quite penetrate the white matte labels enough. When I use my finger to press the center of the printed white matte label, the ink transfers to my hand a little bit.

I'm going to try now the glossies to see if the ink from my printer stays on better.

Regardless, the system is the BEST. In addition, they're the only ones that makes a system to cover the very center...which looks GREAT with picture prints by the way.

I just wish these labels were cheaper!

The labels are a great idea. They are the only labels in stores right now that print all the way down to the hole in the middle of your CD. Unfortunately they only work with the Afterburner Applicator which is poorly designed. It's the flexible gizmo that takes a lot of practice to use correctly and even then it prone to air-bubbling and difficult to get perfectly aligned and centered on your CD hole.

I use all of the Afterburner labels and no other labels will do! These things are great! I don't even use the labeler thingey. In daylight, I just put the CD/DVD in its case and eyeball it at the center hole. Any bubbles that happen are easy to press out. The only problem I've had is that the printer ink doesn't adhere to the metallic labels as well as the matte or glossy labels; the print can be accidentally rubbed or scraped off.
