Yup, heck the blanks are so cheap, and the burners so fast now, why not 
burn at least 3 if one is to be for the car?  I got a spindle of 100 blanks 
free after rebate.  Course here we pay sales tax and the stamp, but adding 
that in the blanks are around 2c each.:)

My understanding is the sticky stuff fails to hold and when it pulls away 
from the disk the reflective layer goes with it. :(  Kiss that sucker 
goodbye!

I use a sharpie which seems to be ok.
