It is not harfmul,it stores what you want to hide from your media managers.You can find it with file explorers if you check to see hidden files.

I take it you have music and videos on your SD card - So this file is needed otherwise every single file will be added to the apps like movies or Walkman which aren't anything to do with those apps - For example I have a PDF file on my SD card and so without that file it will show up in my Walkman app - Do you or I or anyone really want files like that appearing in Walkman or the Movies app

That file is something like buffer memory..it keep your media info amd show them when needed
