>>Stick-It Right labelling sw review. I ordered a copy.
Uh, Dave, one of us made a mistake. I recommended the Stick-it Right labels themselves; they are very high quality, completely opaque labels. I don't know anything about their software, though. Sorry if I misled you.
I've used two or three template programs, one of which is in Easy CD Creator itself. Not too flexible, but adequate to bang out labels for backups, for instance.
For a fancier label I used a drawing program (WinDraw from Micrografx, in fact) to make a template with text wrapped around curves to print around the label, etc. Very tedious making the template, but the results look good on the high-quality Stick-it Right labels. Dunno that it's worth the trouble, though. Registration of the labels is a bit iffy. You have to fiddle with each printer, or at least I've not found a label maker that's smart enough to account for the non-printing area correctly. I always have to fudge it.
Thing is, once you've made a few different kinds of labels, you can use a previous label as a template and simply edit the text for content retaining the formatting. That's when it begins to be worth the trouble.
