I spent last summer vacation with a box of markers and a bottle of Bubbies juice, but in the end the only discs that improved were the Freds themselves. I'm still smarting from not having the foresight to consider the consequence of making Limp Bizkit sound like Queen. An improvement? Hardly. I give this tweak a categorical thumbs down. Freddie's Dead, and I ain't going near no sleeping virgins with the pickle juice. You're really stretching my gullibility this time, I can just feel it.
Markering of CD Edges
Has anyone who "paints" the edges of their CDs with various-colored markers noticed any loss of information after marking their discs? There's a thread over at Audio Asylum, where one person indicates that marking up the edges of a disc actually decreases readability and increases errors. I personally haven't noticed this effect--actually, quite the opposite--but I'm wondering what others' experiences are.
In addition, does painting the edge of an SACD green have any deleterious effect? I just found out that green is not the appropriate color to use on SACDs, but that information comes after marking up about 50 SACDs. Can I just leave the green markering on, or is it having a negative effect and should I remove it with rubbing alcohol?
Many thanks for any responses.
