Its not acid or other things that mostly render cd/dvd useless with a label. The problem is according to the gernan computer magazin c't that the labels are deforming the cd/dvds so they aren't plain anymore, this results in a bad reflection then and this renders the media useless. CDs seem to be ok as the density on that media is not that high, on dvd media it was almost allways a problem because of the high density of the media. Maybe you have luck if you use a thin label that is flexible, since the problem is that the to layers (the media and the label) are working against each other and this deforms the media.
