Is it really true that one should only write on a cd with a marker labeled CD/DVD marker? The Sharpie I bought for that purpose doesn't really seem any different than regular Fine and Ultra Fine Sharpies -- just more expensive! :)

To: COMPUTERGUYS-L@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Date: Monday, October 5, 2009, 11:24 AM I had a data cd that i saved a few documents, emails on and my email addys and favorites for about 2 yrs. Now when i load the cd, it's blank! I have the things on the 'puter so i can put 'em back on. I have an LCD monitor and i put the cd back in the case and set it a few inches away...is the a small magnetic force that eventually wipes the cd? I save them to the cd...would it be better if I burned them on instead or it doesn't matter?
