I use Bacula 2.0.2 and with it DVD seems to work mostly good. Only exception to 
that has been for me a crash during backup. The data was not written to the 
Catalog database, but the data written was in the spool directory. Bacula 
counts the data in the DVD + in the data in the spool directory, and complains 
when that does not match with Catalog.

The next job after crash: The Media goes to error state and job fails. 
Solution: delete all files from spool folder, set the Media to Append (if in 
Error state) and it works again!

DVD is not a solution for a corporation, but ok for a (set of) home server(s).
