Yes, my experience is of burning "real" Hybrid CD's as opposed to Custom
Hybrid CD's.
I think the problem applies to a photographer too. Just depends on how much
you want to put on the CD. For example, if you do a simple drag and drop,
can you put 650mb of images? My understanding, happy to be corrected, is you
cannot. You have to take extra steps so that the same media is shared across
the Mac HFS+ volume and the ISO 9660 format and burned just once.
While it's fairly easy on the Mac to burn Hybrid CD's using a full version
of Toast, it's also fairly easy on the PC if you use CDEveryWhere (though
you can run into problems). With other software, you will need someway of
importing a Mac HFS+ volume.
