-<para>Nepomuk has been a great semantic framework in recent years with many applications like &dolphin; using it for managing metadata associated with its files and resources. And now, even &amarok; uses Nepomuk to fetch tracks in your computer. This collection doesn't use the SQLite backend to store statistics and metadata ( artist, album, year, genre, Labels etc ). It instead uses Nepomuk to store them and fetch them.

-<sect3 id="why-use-the-nepomuk-collection-at-all"><title>Why use the Nepomuk Collection at all?</title>
-<para>Nepomuk is a system wide backend with multiple applications already using it for search and metadata. So when you rate a track in &amarok;, it reflects in &dolphin; as well. When you burn your music tracks onto a disc, the ratings will be included too! You don't have to remember where you have stored your music tracks anymore. Nepomuk fetches tracks from all over your computer. You don't have to organize your music tracks into one single folder! Imagine the number of times you downloaded a track again just 'cos you couldn't find it in your computer -- not anymore.
