Sam, any comment on this, I know you've worked on this API in the past 
and wanted to know if you had any input here.

Just so you guys know, I would love to get this fixed before the 
releases in the next week or so.

I think it's important to update the wiki spec first though so we have a 
clear understanding of what we're doing. My suggestion would be:

1. Store in ~/.cache/media-art by default
2. Store in $MOUNT/.cache/media-art/ for removable devices
3. Store no where if we have some option to disable, e.g. 
MEDIA_ART_NO_REMOVABLE_CACHE.

Thoughts?
