Hmmmmm, sounds like iTunes. ;-)
FWIW, Apple people have claimed that the iTunes XML library exists
specifically for interaction with other apps, but there's never been
any official word that it's cool for *third-party* apps to rely on
this file and its format. So people who want to poke at the iTunes
library without relying on Apple Events are kind of operating in a
gray area.
