It is there so that the same file can have multiple popularity
entries.

Think of it as a unique string for a user... there is no obligation to
actually use a real email address.

That said, I don't know of any player that uses it.  iTunes stores the
ratings in the DB that gets synced between the iPod and iTunes.  It
appears nowhere in the files :-(
