Searching for the string "Official" seems rather bogus, unless we want vendors who create unofficial CD-ROMs to put the string "Not Official" in their .disk/info files. I suspect searching for the strings "Debian" and "Binary-" would suffice to ensure you have a Debian CD of some form in the drive.
