I've never had a problem with balance when using the round labels that 
are designed to be printed and placed over the entire CD/DVD.
I, currently, have an Epson Stylus Photo R300 printer which allows me to 
print directly on DVD's (and cd's I suppose).  The DVD's have a pure 
white top surface and the printer can put full-color pictures on the 
DVD.  That's another option...
