Burning text and graphics onto bottom of a CD

Anyone remember a few years ago there was software that would let you
burn images or text onto the free space of a CDR so when you looked at
the bottom of the disk you could see them? What happened to this
software? I have looked all over the place and can not find even a
single reference to it.

Went to the big bit bucket in the sky with the Yamaha drive that was the
only one that would do that trick

Yamaha DiscT@2
Only Nero supported the feature.
Yamaha withdrew from the CD-R/RW business in 3/03.

This drive you speak of is the Yamaha CRW-F1 CDRW Writer. I still own
and use it as it provides a pretty good, relatively fast write to CD.

The technology asked about is called Disc T@2. The idea was that it
would create text/graphics on the non-recorded part of the bottom of
the disc. Unfortunately, you could only use the version of Nero that
shipped with the unit to utilize the feature - and the feature didn't
work worth a damn. You could never see what you went to so much
trouble to create.

It was a sham. I bought the recorder because of a really decent sale
price and it's speed - not because of this supposed perk. Had I
bought it solely because it could put images on the back of the CDR I
would have felt royally ripped off.

Subject: [2-42] Can I draw pictures on a disc with the recording laser?

Lists "DiscT@2", described by other posts here, and "LightScribe", which
does essentially the same thing but on the *top* side of specially-constructed
media.
