+You can keep images like album covers and film posters in their works' respective folder if you don't want to rely on scrapers, or want to override their choices. It's not a feature I've made use of yet (though I do it for most of my music library anyway), but I was curious, so I'm reading about it. I think I'll find it useful for music videos at least, and maybe customising the odd film poster.
+You can also add a 'theme' audio file (plays when you look at movie info.???)
