Which application would you choose to catalog your CD collection? I have reviewed the following applications that are specifically tailored for the task such as Delicious Library and Collectorz Music Collector. I do like the visual presentation of Delicious Library. Both offer the simplicity of scanning the CD barcodes. It seems that CollectorZ Music Collector has more more fields and customizable to a limited degree than Delicious Library. The down side to Delicious Library is that I did not notice on the website that it has an export feature to convert the data into another format such as Excel spreadsheet.

The other option is to use an application like File Maker Pro which would allow the total customization and the ability to export the data to an Excel file if desired. I leaning towards using File Maker Pro, but I am interested in other HA members opinions and experience in this area. Thank for your help! smile.gif

Unfortunately, Delicious Library does not have a "Purchased From" field, so I store that info in the Comments field.

I've been using CATraxx for several years now and highly recommend it. Handles any format you can think of - CDs, SACD, vinyl, tapes, digital. Great software, fantastic support from the developer, Fredrik Nordbakke. You can find out more and dowload a trial version here CATraxx.

I bookmarked this one to see if it would be appropriate for cataloging my DVD's. Probably worth a peek for you:

For Windows users, I also recommend CATraxx. Another one for the Mac is CDpedia.
