Here's another snip from Fred Langa's article, found online at www.langa.com "The problem with glue-on labels is that they cover the data surface of the CD. The glue from the label goes right on top of the foil that covers the CD's data-carrying dye. The foil is very, very thin and may itself be damaged by the label or glue; or may allow volatile chemicals from the glue to diffuse through to the dye layer, damaging it and the data it contains."
