I would expect Category to be something custom for each user while Genre 
is something more universal, well defined and supplied by various 
metadata sites like IMDB. Category is what allows a user to group things 
for their own filtering desires.  I would not expect a general purpose 
automated script to be able to generically accommodate every user.
