File library vs. file system

Tagamac makes a nice comparison between file libraries and file system from the point of view of tags. One extend the arguments to any MicroContent Type. We are slowly moving towards libraries. These libraries hide the file system details from the user. These libraries allow users to organise their files in any way they want, i.e. through the idea of (virtual) Lists (hand-picked and smart). The use of the structure of MicroContent (internal and meta) helps the user find and organise his files even better. The File System is really passé.
