LightScribe media will not peel or smudge like printed CD labels. Fade is unheard of, as images are etched by a laser, whereas printed CD labels can deteriorate and fade over time. The process requires no other consumable, no ink and no printing. Just burn your data, flip it over, and burn your image into the other side of the disc with the same writer. It really is that simple. The results are totally water resistant and permanent.

LightScribe Double Layer DVDs are not yet available. LightScribe DVD disks thus far have only been available in DVD-R format, and prices have been steadily decreasing. Colored DVD discs are now becoming more widely available.

LightScribe CD-R have been available for sale since about 2006. After the initial “gold” discs were launched, colored LightScribe CDR also followed. However these are just a different background burning surface, and they do not actually write in photographic color.

Infiniti make a range of LightScribe CD-R, DVD-R and color background DVD and CD LightScribe discs. as with all other LightScribe media, Infiniti discs require a compatible DVD/CD burner and software.
