"""
The base module provides a base :class:`Base` class for all objects that
are tracked by Elodie. The Base class provides some base functionality used
by all the media types, but isn't itself used to represent anything. Its
sub-classes (:class:`~elodie.media.audio.Audio`,
:class:`~elodie.media.photo.Photo`, :class:`~elodie.media.video.Video`, and
:class:`~elodie.media.text.Text`)
are used to represent the actual files.
