I'm currently a bit confused regarding the media types in v6 (or even 4.10+). I'd like to use the uQuery component to access the cached version instead of using the IMediaServices which seems to not be cached (am I right or not ?). I'm aware of the examine possibilities, but thats not the way I'd like to go.
Unfortunately the Media type returned by uQuery is obsolete. But using the XPathNodeIterator directly seems still to be fine. Can someone tell me what we now can or should use to access media?
If anyone has any opinion about the throusands way of getting a media file, then just tell me. What I'm doing is getting all descending images of selected media folder structure.

Something similar. Can someone tell me why this code returns each image file twice?
return media.Descendants().Where(m => !string.IsNullOrEmpty(m.GetPropertyValue<string>("umbracoFile"))).OrderByDescending(m => m.CreateDate).Take(5);Well I ended up using the MediaService in v6. It is many times faster than any of the other methods.
