Actually, I prefer the old property list format, myself. It's
far more elegant, IMHO.
YES! When I look at XML, frequently tags seem to consume
more bytes than data. It's so wordy compared with the old plist
format that reading the important stuff (the data) is sometimes
quite difficult. But I suppose XML wasn't designed to be easily
human-readable. XML is, of course, much more versatile since
data structures other than strings, arrays, dictionaries, and
binary data can be expressed.
