You really shouldn't use labels on CDs/DVDs. Labels can cause the CD/DVD
to be out of balance, and can damage the drive. If the label should warp,
the disk could get stuck in the device. Air bubbles under the label could
cause an unequal distribution of forces on the disc as it spins in the
drive, which in turn could cause the disc to shatter while spinning at
high speeds such as 52X for CDs and 16X for DVDs. Other issues have also
been attributed to the use of paper labels on disks.

We've known a couple of folks who trashed their car cd players because of
labels. The cds get hot when played and the glue on the labels gets gummy
allowing the label to come off inside the player. Why risk it for a "pretty"
label.
