Acoustica CD/DVD Label Maker can automatically import track information directly from iTunes playlists or from playlist file types, can import track information from CD-Text, , and can directly read track/file information from MP3 or data CDs and DVDs. Auto-tracks formatting allows you to format your tracks layout in a variety of styles, including circular and spiral text, with a single click. You can also hide and show specific tracks fields (title, artist, genre, etc.) or hide/show tracks listings altogether with a single button click or menu. In addition Version 3.03, released on Tuesday, Nov 9th, has support for LightScribe direct disc labelling. General LightScribe Direct Disc Labelling is technology that offers users a simple way to burn professional,silkscreen-quality labels on their CDs and DVDs. Using the same laser that burns data in their disc drives, users burn their data as always, flip the disc over, reinsert it into the drive and burn a precise, iridescent label with their desired text and graphics using the same laser that burns the data - no printer, permanent marker or adhesive labelling is required.

My Experience I received my electronic copy of the Acoustica CD/DVD Label Maker and within a few minutes, I had it downloaded and running. The software contains a help file, which is comprehensive and easy to understand. I had no problem in making a CD label with pictures of my choice, title of the many songs and a title to the CD. In addition, I was able to create the folder with the list of songs for the interior of a CD container.
No problem was encountered in printing the CD label after I sorted out how to align the CD form with the printer..

Acoustica provides many interesting suggestions for designing your CD background and the interior of the CD folder. I experimented with professional made CDs and CDs that I had previously made and the Acoustica software read the titles of the songs and listed them either as a list or around the CD label..

I tried to use the LightScribe function and I had to seek help from Acoustica as I was not certain of the steps to take. I emailed them one morning and received a response within two hours. Unfortunately, I do not have the required CD burner to activate the LightScribe function.

I found Acoustica CD/DVD Label Maker an easy piece of software to get used to and fun to use. As I previously stated you have the full version of this software for 7 days before having to purchase. Give it a try and have fun. It does not cost you a cent for the use of this software unless you purchase.
