In this chapter, we explored options for managing our media. First, by harnessing the power of Node Reference, we brought Drupal fully under our control. This allowed us to embed provided media within our nodes, while at the same time making it available outside that node such as for galleries. We also explored the Asset module as a full-featured solution. Finally, we touched briefly on Media Mover, which is a framework for harvesting, processing, and storing our site's media.

As a general reminder, you are encouraged to become active in the development of your favorite module: by examining the relevant issue queues; by helping to review, test, and even write patches; by writing and offering documentation and tutorials; and by contacting the module developers to find out how else you can help.

In the next few chapters, we'll learn how to wisely include and embed audio within our sites.
