NewSoft CD Labeler
NewSoft CD Labeler is a macOS utility for designing and printing custom labels and covers for CDs and DVDs. It provides templates and tools for creating professional-looking disc labels, jewel case inserts, and sleeve artwork, with support for custom graphics, text, and photo placement. The app was widely used by people who burned and distributed CDs or DVDs, or who needed to label personal media collections with custom artwork.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionNewSoft CD Labeler has not been actively updated in many years. The latest publicly available version appears to be 2.3, with no clear evidence of ongoing development or native Apple Silicon support. As optical media (CDs and DVDs) has become increasingly obsolete — replaced by cloud storage, streaming, and digital distribution — the software has largely fallen out of use and development. The app will continue to run under Rosetta 2 on your current Mac, but Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), meaning the app will stop launching entirely on that release. If you still regularly burn and label optical media, contact NewSoft directly to inquire whether a native build is planned; if not, you may need to find an alternative. For most users, cloud-based label design services like Canva, or modern label-printing software bundled with disc-burning utilities like Toast, may serve your needs more reliably going forward.
