How is everybody scanning the album covers & sleeves? Am I the only one who can't find an affordable oversize scanner? Or are you using photos?
Are you putting the scans on the same CD-R with the audio, on a separate CD-R, or just printing them out?
Anybody know how to make a multi-format CD-R using a Mac? I can't find anything helpful searching for "enhanced CD" in the help system.
Thanks!

I know it is not via the computer, but I've actually taken some LP covers to Kinkos and run the front and back, even the gatefold inner sleeves, on their copiers. They have them that fit the LP jackets in one copy, and the color looks almost perfect to th
