Content Resolution
Traditionally playlists have been composed of file paths that pointed to individual titles. This allowed a playlist to be played locally on one machine or shared if the listed file paths were URLs accessible to more than one machine (e.g. on the web). XSPF's meta-data rich open format has permitted a new kind of playlist sharing called content resolution.
A simple form of content resolution is the localisation of a playlist based on metadata. A content resolver will open XSPF playlists and search a catalog for every title with , and tags, then localise the playlist to reference the available matching tracks. A catalog may reference be a collection of media files on a local disk, a music subscription service like Yahoo! Music Unlimited or some other searchable archive. The end result is shareable playlists that are not tied to a specific collection or service.</p></div><p>Read more about this topic: <a href="/xml_shareable_playlist_format">XML Shareable Playlist Format</a></p>

<p><h3>Famous quotes containing the words <span class="quote_words">content</span> and/or <span class="quote_words">resolution</span>:</h3></p><ul>
<p id="quote_ext"><span class="quot">“</span>In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its <i>content</i> and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.<span class="quot">”</span><br>—<a href="/who_is_susan_sontag" title="Who is Susan Sontag?">Susan Sontag</a> (b. 1933)</p>
<p id="quote_ext"><span class="quot">“</span>We have been here over forty years, a longer period than the children of Israel wandered through the wilderness, coming to this Capitol pleading for this recognition of the principle that the Government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed. Mr. Chairman, we ask that you report our <i>resolution</i> favorably if you can but unfavorably if you must; that you report one way or the other, so that the Senate may have the chance to consider it.<span class="quot">”</span><br>—<a href="/who_is_anna_howard_shaw" title="Who is Anna Howard Shaw?">Anna Howard Shaw</a> (1847–1919)</p></ul>
