I may add to Dan's Comment:

>> just for archive functions?
Aside using the infomation in the frontend, as outlined by Dan,
its also usable for searching and refining searches within the
DAM-Backend. This functionality is highly helpful asa understood on on
how to use it;
Please see "Working with selections":
http://forge.typo3.org/wiki/extension-dam/Media_list
BTW: Quite some Extensions use more than just the Title and Alt-Text
Metadata of DAM records; especially those Gallery- and File-Listing
Extensions.
However I cant recall any single extension using ALL Fields; which would
be useless anyway, thinking of the different types;
