I think the important question being asked here is: How persistent is
the meta-data? In other words... will it survive a trip to another
drive (I think the answer is yes)? How about a trip around the net (My
guess is no)?
I think the original poster also wanted to know whether you can use
spotlight to generate (and store) meta-data not otherwise contained in
the file. I am guessing the answer is no... or at least that you
shouldn't. Though, it seems that spotlight would provide quick access
to any meta-data that can actually be extracted from the file itself.
I would recommend looking at the new Core Data specs if you are looking
for new ways to work with data.
Thanks,
Jon
