I just watched a video by Scott Kelby showcasing "100 reasons why Lightroom kicks ACR's @$$". But not one reason had to do with actual image editing. The advantages were all about organizing and handling files, which I don't care about. My style is picking the best shot from a session and throwing the rest away, so Adobe Camera Raw and Bridge fit my needs. But I want to know if Lightroom has any editing advantages over ACR, other than printing, filing, viewing, and organizing. I hear both applications use the same "engine", so I assume neither Lightroom nor ACR have a leg up.
