Hi!

I was wondering how itunes does its database. I am looking to make a database for my game's elements, and I am not sure where I should start. How does one create a file that can accessed as fast as itunes does.


Maybe I am misunderstanding you, but as far as I know, iTunes creates its own file structure (look at /Users/<you>/Music/iTunes/). There's a file "iTunes Music Library.xml" which keeps track of all the files and the information...

It's a property-list file, so you should be able to read it pretty easily (I know that's not what you asked for, but I just wanted to point that out in case you want to explore)

Bye,
Michael
