That's a good idea, and probably should be a default, but because it's
not as ubiquotous as id3, I wouldn't want to depend on it. 

Also, I like the human editable nature of XML, but it's something can
be a user choice; currently, since there is no meta parser for video
files, the xml is the quickest solution and is pretty trivial to
implement, relatively.

As far as I can tell, avi, ogm, mpg all do. But
