does anyone sharpie thier CD's???

its amazing. take a wedge sharpie, and color in the outermost edge of the CD.. then color in the center flat area, and the innermost edge... when you hold the CD up to light, you should not see any coming through..... so actually before you do this, pick a track, turn it up and listen,,,,, then color in the disc, without adjuting the volume, listen again..... i get more volume, calrity and depth...... check this out!!

Any color sharpie (as long as it 'stops' red is fine.
I used to use the green Uni-Posa pens, but found that a black Sharpie works as well.
I only do the outer edge, on CD and DVDs.
I use the thick tip Sharpie. (It is cheaper, and lasts longer, than the thin tip ones)

the edges are what cause whatever the problem is. A label is not gonna curve around the edges.

Back in the 'olden days' folks argued about "How many Angels can dance on the head of a pin?".
This is the same sort of problem.
(What I want to know: If the angels ar on the top of the head, then the devils must be dancing on the underside of the head.. But, with the shaft of the pin and all.. The question is: Are there fewer devils than Angels?)
Are devils smaller? more compact? do the Angels wings cause problems in packing them while they dance? Do devils prefer to rub shoulders more than Angels?
And finally, what sort of music do they all dance to? Do the devils subwoofers annoy the Angels?
