I quite like CSVs. I've used them to great effect at maybe every job I've ever had. xsv, sqlite, and Excel/LibreOffice provide useful tooling on top of them.

I see a lot of complaining about "no standard" in this thread, but the way I've used them, it's been fine. I just use Haskell's cassava. If human produce them with Excel/LibreOffice, I never have issues on the ingestion end.
