Apple Aluminium Keyboard media keys serve many roles

I bought a new aluminum Apple Keyboard a few days ago, and found the media keys (F7, F8 and F9) very useful for controlling iTunes. Then I discovered after putting a DVD into my Mac Pro that the media keys stop controlling iTunes and control DVD Player instead. Handy to use the keyboard instead of fiddling with a mouse, especially if you have a wireless keyboard!

Not sure if this is documented, but I haven't heard about it before.
