Yes it does,

As Rachel said in her first reply

" Libraries (particularly public libraries) already use Koha for DVD's 
and a range of media "

If you switch marc off, and choose simple acquisitions you can enter 
data without seeing MARC tags, I think she said this also already.

And of course you can edit the simple acquisition templates, and any 
other ones to say Director instead of author if you so wish.
