Ironically enough, MusicBrainz is no longer recommending that people
use this format. RDF has proven to be a significant hinderance to
adoption because of its bizarre syntax and horrible specs. Instead,
we're following the lead of the big guys and going with plain simple
XML:

This format was created by Matthias and myself and should work well
with XSPF. As for accessing MB metadata via REST, this has become the
official way moving forward. RDF has now been deprecated at MB.
