Optical Media Inlays

This is a small gallery of various recordable optical media inlay cards, sometimes also known as inserts or index cards.

It is by no means intended to be a complete and canonical museum of any kind, it exists only to highlight various design layouts. Nor am I interested in reader contributions; this page will not be updated, and it is only complete in as far as featuring those that remained in my personal CD production project stock before they got thrown out.

Do with this as thou wilt.

It is April 2013. In this day and age of cheap external hard drives, memory cards, and USB-sticks and dongles, there's barely need for recordable optical media, let alone inserts or intricate artwork for personal projects.

Broken and binned discs

The end.
