Leala Abbott maintains a list of DAM vendors that you might find useful: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AghOkXx4WqeVdGxtLUo4MmVHVEVBYlpsZkRxR091OHc It's got a more technical bent, but is good for finding out who's out there.

I also found The Real Story Group's DAM report (just the sample) useful for getting an idea of the vendor landscape.
