Digital BW, The Print

I played around with LR a few years ago. Does it have the capabilities in its cataloging to keep track of multiple backup DVDs instead of a hard drive? And what are its search options, can you search by keywording, etc? Any limits on number of files or DVDs? I have been using Extensis Portfolio, but it has limits.

For database (keeping track of client files), LR is great. I've used it for years and rely on it every day.

Especially when you can send to a ppd rip like ColorBurst or a hot-folder. I wish LR printed tif files instead of just JPGs for "print-to-file" though  . . .
