Hi all.

I'm looking for a good book on the Oracle options/cartridges.

In particular, the group of options now bundled as Imedia. i.e Context, Image, locator etc. Ideally the book would explain how to integrate it with front-end tools such as developer and clearly explain the advangaes of using these options rather that just storing images straight into BLOB files yourself.

i.e Given that I can store images, and sound in the database using long, blob or Bfile datatypes, and subsequently query these using Forms, why would I bother buying the extra server options?

Thanks for the help
