RE: Anybody still use green ink on discs?

I still use green markers on the outside edge of my discs. I don’t use it on the spindle edge anymore, because a friend of mine said the ink might get gunked up on the spindle over time. That sounded reasonable to me, so I no longer do it.

As for effectiveness, I think it works. It’s not a huge difference, mind you, but it is audible. Mainly I hear increased focus in imaging and a little added low-level resolution. You can go further and draw lines, etc., on the label side, but I found that going that far made little difference and made my discs look like shit. Marking the outer edge seems to make the biggest difference.

This is a public service announcement . . . WITH GUITARS!!!
