+- Supports any number of used-defined metadata fields per project.
+- Does not modify the original media but keeps its metadata separately.
+- Powerful searching through metadata.
+- Lightweight and easy to install.  No server setup required.
+- Cross-platform: works on Linux, OS X, and Windows.
+- Simple browser-based UI.
+- Support to export metadata to a CSV file and import tags from a CSV file.

+- Support to allow user-defined conversions of media to supported versions.
+- Open source.

+ViXeN has currently been tested with about a quarter of a million files in a
+single project. It is designed to work well with around 100k files. It will
+still work for larger projects but will be progressively slower the larger the
+number of files. The speed does not however depend on the nature of the media.
+This restriction with the number of files may be changed later depending on
+the feedback received by users. ViXeN does not currently support multiple
+people working on the same project at the same time.
