[QUOTE="kev160967, post: 136100, member: 26620"] Hi, I've just been having a play with the music database sources (I want to add support for the album artist tag). It seems straightforward enough, but one thing I find myself doing a lot is comparing the SQLlite stuff with MS SQL Server. Now I've got to admit that I have something of a bias here, as I work with MS's product all the time in my day job (and I really like it). Having said that, I do keep on coming across things which strike me as being compromises based on SQLLite limitations. So, finally, to my question. I've no feeling for how good SQLLite is in terms of performance, but would people think there'd be any mileage in doing an alternative (optional) MSDE back end database implementation?
