Also known as: meta element, NZB metadata
An optional <meta> element inside the NZB's <head> section, carrying a type attribute and a value. Common types are title, category and password. Download clients read the password meta to unlock encrypted RAR archives without prompting, and use title for the job name in the queue. Meta tags are advisory: many NZBs omit the head section entirely and clients fall back on the filename.
