If you have the need for thumbnails then yes. But for $10 extra what the heck.

juergen ... The only drawback I see is that the management programs like PaintShop Pro and Photo Manager contain comments in their database and not in the EXIF of the photo. Is there a way to extract this from the PaintShop Pro database using EXIFTOOL? ... Hi, i think it is a SQLite Database (ImageDB.db) but I don't know if anyone explains the data model or whether it is transparent anywhere, could be a bit exhausting... ;-/ I don't know whether I will still want to or be able to use Paintshop Pro in 10 years' time, so I prefer to entrust metadata to the images themselves, so that the metadata can be completely restored from the images themselves if necessary. ExifTool can read and write quite a lot of metadata in quite a lot of file types (so not just Exif or images...). But the Paintshop Pro DB is not one of them (i mean).

Another tip or approach I haven't seen here in the thread would be Excire. excire.com/en/I think the idea is pretty brilliant, but I only know it from reviews.
