Think of iTunes and iPhoto as database applications. The database

use MySQL/4D/Oracle client as your database application (you'd use
a front-end application, not a back-end one), you should use the
front-end iPhoto or iTunes, not the back-end Finder.
I have 20,000+ photos to organize. IPhoto has proven incapable of
managing that many photos without data loss and lots of lag.
Not to mention the permanent color shifting bug in the last version.
No thanks!
It may be fine for smaller collections, but there's no way I'm
trusting my data to it.
