Hey guys,

Anyone has any knowledge of lightscribe technology? As in is it really useful and worth it to get a LightScribed enabled DvD writer? Or would it be better to just get a reliable DvD writers with standard functions?

Any recommended brands? Like Samsung or Asus? Which brand is considered good at optical drives?

Hope to hear from you guys soon! Thanks!
 
dont get it. it is horable. it is grey scale and it takes 30 min to "burn" the image on it. it is not work it
 
^^ Yup Lightscribe is a waste of money. Although, most new burners come with it anyway. You are better off using labels and printing them out!
 
i got LightScribe too but i never use it i just bought the dvd burner because i needed one and i bought it for the requirements it had not because it have LightScribe. It's not worth it getting dvd or cd burner for the LightScribe only.
 
I dont have one and don't want one. Ive seen it and looks good for gray scale. Then again it takes to long.

Im curious.......why in the blue moon with all the technology can they not print in color?
 
well it is a new tech (which is kinda stupid because really it is just a laser eatching something and that is easy) but color is/can be hard because you would need to have different meterals to chage color
 
Lol, I don't actually mind using lightscribe every now and then, it doesn't really take 30 mins though.

I would suggest Asus if your going to get lightscribe cause there drives are fairly cheap.

Kent.
 
I bought lightscribe dvd's for like 5 for $20 and found out my laptop didn't have lightscribe (my old laptop) - it came pre-installed with roxio light scribe whatever which made me think it had it :'(
 
^^ LOL thats expensive and that sucks! The most I have ever paid for dvd's is $11 for 50! I just got a pack of 50 for $9. LOL That was cheap. They are not lighscribe but, still thats cheap as heck for dvd's.
 
dual layers are just as expensive, i lucked out and got 20 for 25 the other day but usually for 20 they are around the 50 dollar mark
 
i got a lightscribe dvd drive and i quite like it, yeah it take a while but its just a cool thing to have.
 
I have got a light scribe samsund dvd burner, but have never used this option, I think there is some special software needed to perform it.
