But if the disc image is nothing more than what is on the DVD then you can 
save even more space by not keeping the disc image and re-creating one off 
your final burned disc/s if/when you want to burn additional copies.

Holding onto a disc image of each of your projects could very fast fill 
one's valuable work space unnecessarily.

Am I off the mark???

But if I still have my project files, this thread seems to be indicating
that there's still another reason to create a disc image of a project. If 
I
were to guess, I'd say that if you have limited disc space on your 
internal
drive, is the idea to make a disc image, keep it on the internal drive for
future burns, and then transfer all the raw material off onto an external
drive or burn it to a DVD to save space on your internal drive? Is that 
the
reason?
