Anyone using Oracle Media Objects in conjunction w/the web?

Is anyone here using Oracle Media Objects? Someone plopped this product on my desk and asked me to look into it. What we want to do is have data "live" on a webserver and be updateable over the web... then, when the time comes, to be able to download that data onto a CD-ROM. Can it be used for this purpose? Is there a better way to do it?

Is Oracle Media Objects just a regular authoring tool like Director, or is it specially integrated with Oracle/Oracle webserver? I've heard that Oracle itself can't handle lots of text. Does OMO fix this?

Lastly, is OMO cross-platform? I've heard it rumored that Director is dying because it's *not* cross-platform... in other words, a Director presentation made on the Mac won't run on a PC without mucho (or some) tweaking.

Thanks
