Default CD Jewel Case insert & label software, Mac

For years I used Magic Mouse by Discus, but they stopped creating new updates when Mac OS X came along. I had been dragging out an old old computer that was compatible, but I'd like to know of current software that is relatively intuitive for creating Jewel case inserts and CD label software for a Mac. I've tried Swift Publisher by Belight Software. I have found it unintuitive, and it freezes when I quit it. There is not enough instruction online. I have contacted them by email and they've responded. But I'm constantly hitting walls and getting frustrated. Thanks.

I've never used it on a mac, but iTunes has the feature to make CD case inserts. I did it a lot a few years ago for demo CD's for bands I was in and for some friends.

I believe Avery (the label company) has templates for CD labels and inserts. Its done on their website so you dont download apps onto your computer, and I believe they sell the paper and labels for printing.

i've used the Avery site to make wine labels. name badges, and other things, and its not intuitive either, but it beats buying more software.

Unfortunately, Avery is no longer making Avery® CD Label & Insert Combo Sheets, Permanent Adhesive, Matte, 20 Disc Labels and 20 Front Inserts (8696).
