Peter,
It is also possible that the label unbalanced the CD, causing the write
failure.
As far as computer expenditures passing the wife's scrutiny, you need a plan
that gives her some benefit! "But honey, think how much better and easier it
will be to use our CD collection if I can print the information on the
surface of the CD! You'll be able to find your favorite much faster." Makes
it much easier to convince that the expenditure is a necessity! :)
