Q&A: What is the best way to catalog the pictures which are stored on your backup DVDs?

Question by George C: What is the best way to catalog the pictures which are stored on your backup DVDs?
I have about 200G of high-res images/photos backed up on DVDs. What's the best way to catalog them? I'm looking for something similar to Picasa which would allow me to view the index/thumbnails and once I decide I need a high-rez version it'll tell me the label of the disk where the image is stored.

Best answer:

I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you George but I did want to mention I highly recommend you consider hard drive based offsite storage rather than DVD's simply because you have so much data - I'm betting those images are very important to you.

Something like iDrive.com or one of the other online backup companies.

If you are unable or unwilling to do something like that I hope you are storing those DVD's offsite some place like a safe deposit box.
