I’ve got a new toy for Fedora FreeMedia in April, I’ve managed to finally pick up a new SATA DVD burner. My old reliable DVD burner was still working just fine however burning 50+ DVDs a month @ 4x was getting painfully slow. I’ve now got a 20x with lightscribe 
So since I’ve got the lightscribe feature I figured I might as well use it!
I used to think why not use the LightScribe that came with my system but after using it a few times it just took too long. If you are burning 50 DVDs a month better plan on 1000 minutes or 16 hours to make the labels. I switched to the DiscPainter for disc labels because printing 50 labels only takes 1-3 minutes per instead of the 20+ with LS.
Hrm, I’ll have to take a look at DiscPainter, LightScribe on this brand new drive only takes 8-10 mins to print the image so it isn’t that bad, plus I just pop one in while doing chores around the house and then check periodically and swap so it’s not like I’m just sitting around waiting.
Okay the only thing that makes me uneasy is it doesn’t say it has Linux support and well… I don’t run anything but. However it is Mac compatible and I’ve been thinking of investing in a power book for the wife so perhaps I can just use that.
We’ll see.
