There is need for special hardware for such transparencies? Like an 
ordinary user can't download the graphics and print his own CD?

- I like 2 the best, it is the closest to the Infinity look;
- there is some potential in 3, with irregular shapes (kinda ramind me 
of the Bubble splash screen a few release ago), but this particular 
implementation is not that spectacular;
- in 4 the silver part is small, barely noticeable, probably not enough 
to bother with transparency.
