The problem with tagging is that either a) it stores the data in an 
external database that doesn't follow the file when you copy it to a new 
medium or b) it alters the file, changing its MD5 hash and making it not 
identical to the other copies of it on the internet (or wherever), so 
it's harder to find duplicates in large sets of files or quickly 
determine which images of an existing set are missing.
