I have to thank the smart fellers at ZuneThoughts.com for this one.

Microsoft is looking to hire a program manager in the Zune group. Here is what they are looking to do …

deliver systems to take in data feeds from a variety of sources, merge their disparate schemas and produce a comprehensive catalog of assets.

Fascinating. What are they doing this for?

develop the best metadata repository and ingestion system in the world

It get’s better …

a single system that will provide an enormous catalog of content and be the foundation that expands the boundaries of accessible entertainment.

Oh yeah, the boys from Redmond are building themselves a Podcast Directory.
