Difference between list and library in sharepoint

Lists:
  • Can have attachments
  • Have major versions only
  • Do not have Check-in/Check-out features
  • No Open with explorer
  • The title of the document is NOT indexed. So an end user would not be able to search on the title of the document. Example: I attached a document titled "Copy of Test Lobster.doc" but after incremental indexing I get no results searching on the word "lobster."
Libraries:
  • Cannot have attachments (files are directly in the library)
  • Have both minor (draft) and major (published) versioning
  • Have Check-in/Check-Out
  • Publishing Libraries can use Page Layouts
  • Have Unique Document Ids out of the box
