While you can probably count on vbscript being available on target
systems, while Python is something that needs to be installed, so
unless you're just writing something for yourself, this is something
that needs to be taken into account.

The communication model is probably

rev <--> (something.else.that.can.talk.to.COM.objects) <--> COM

For some projects you need to decide whether it's worth continuing in
rev or whether the proper model is simply

(something.else.that.can.talk.to.COM.objects) <--> COM
I agree, I would probably have switched to simply "(something.that.talks.to.COM) <---> COM" except for two things
- rev Player objects are far easier and better than the Python equivalent
- I actually run it remote as well as local, so I have a (Python) server, and talk to it from remote Rev clients

So I keep a single iTunes database on my main desktop server, and can access the iTunes database, playlists, and tracks from the variety of laptops and desktops scattered around the house, which saves me trying to synchronize updates to podcasts (and new CDs) between multiple machines.
