I think metadata is good for what it does. I have a lot of content in my Library that occupies different locations with in it, even though they are the same type of product. Example: High Boots for V4 is found in my props folder in the My Library part of the Poser directory. Another footwear product for the same figure is found in the Figures folder of that same directory, and yet another is found in the My Library part of the DAZ Studio directory in the People folder of the Content folder. Obviously, this can be confusing. Three different footwear products in three different locations, and none have metadata.

I think the real problem is that the system for the content in DAZ is flawed by the way it is setup. If I understand correctly, Poser is not any better with this. I can't back up that last statement, however, as I do not nor have I ever had Poser. Even so, many of my friends on line do have it and from the way they talk the same problem exists for them.
