Write protect tags

Hi
 I just saw something interesting on ebay. Now for
years, I've been carefully placing the tags on the
disk nice and square. I even pre-bend them so that
there is little or no force pulling them off the surface.
Still, one or another will eventually snag on one of the
corners and lift up.
 Well, I just saw a disk with the tag mounted such that
it was diagonally mounted( looks like a little triangle
from each side ). There are no parallel edges to catch
on things as one slides the disk in and out. The
sharp corners that might catch are on the edge of the
disk and unlikely to cause the tag to lift.
 Has anyone else tried this? What do you think?
Dwight
