I saw today those cd/dvd labels you print on them and then you place in your cd / dvd disc. What software are available under Mac OS X?

Is idiots-proff? I can not waste inkjets cartridges...

I also like Discus. It's not the most elegant looking app in the world, but it's very easy to use and supports just about every cd/dvd template in the known world. Magic Mouse just released version 3.0 last week, in fact.

I'd have to say Discus as well. It has a bit of a weird interface, but my elderly clients have no problems using it!

Weird interface is right. And the new version is even weirder, what with their attempt to make it look more Mac OS Xish. But damn if it doesn't print correctly just about every single time without any adjustments. I really like that and can completly over look the goofy UI.

I've also used disclabel, and the idea behind that app is nice, but the implementation sucks. Trying to figure out how to actually get a label template to design takes a degree in rocket science.

Discus wins for me on ease of use alone.
