UnCoverIt is a shareware application that automatically generates labels for different kinds of storage medias.
Unlike other label printing applications you don't have to enter the name of the files on your disk manually. UnCoverIt places icons and file names automatically at the right place and the right size. You choose what files should be displayed on the cover.
UnCoverIt 1.3 adds support for Audio-CDs, so all you have to do is naming the tracks, in case you macintosh doesn't already know their names.
Currently these storage medias are directly supported:
-CD-ROM
-Audio-CD
-Iomega ZIP
-Iomega JAZ
-Iomation SuperDisk
-MO-Cartridges

Note on CDDB support:
UnCoverIt can't connect to the CDDB database directly. However, you can use Toby W. Rush's excellent utility NetCD to fetch a CD's title and track names from the CDDB database. NetCD stores the track names in the "CD Remote Program" file inside your Preferences folder, which is also used by the AppleCD Audio Player. UnCoverIt searches this file every time you create a new audio cover.
NetCD is freeware. Download it from <http://www.tobyrush.com>.
