Features and Usage Adding CD’sĪdding CD’s was probably the best fun - whamo … the builtin iSight camera had my adding CD’s all afternoon.
#Delicious library vs librarything software#
Music Collector was the only software to have a windows version which is good news.
Music Collectors visual style lacks any eye candy being more like a excel spreadsheet then a library database. However, it can search all the same databases like Amazon, CDDB, etc if you first put the CD into the computer. It lacks the Barcode Scanning ability of the other two apps.
#Delicious library vs librarything free#
Music Collector also limits its free version to 100 entries. Delicious Library will also allow you to add books and DVD’s in the same version. I’m not sure why … when CDpedia does a good job of managing my CD’s and DVD’s. By the time I got to 25 entries, I thought paying $18 was going to be worth it.Ĭuriously the company behind CDpedia also makes a version of the software called Bookpedia and DVDpedia. It matches Delicious Library in its ability to use your iSight camera as a barcode scanner.
Booo hisss.ĬDpedia seems the most like iTunes. During testing I was under joyed to find that Delicious Library free version only supports 25 entries. First time users will like Delicious – it can import your iTunes automatically and its best feature is using your Mac’s iSight to scan and search for barcodes. So there is some software for collectors.ĭelicious Library has the nicest interface and a number of options like coverflow, browse by bookshelf (like a library). I knew that a program called Delicious would do the trick and had come across Anobit and Librarything for books. Where to start – searching Google for keywords like CD library, collection or managing CD’s led to lots of spurious results – like suggestions for iTunes, MediaMonkey and so on. Recycling the CD or giving it away to Oxfam is also a nice spacesaving idea – but then technically, you wouldn’t own the music anymore so that digital copy would become illegal. I wanted to recycle the packaging, keep the CD and the booklet for its album artwork. Some audiophiles or purists will have you believe that you still will want to play the CD, but I don’t own an £800 CD player. If you’re like me, I’ve been ripping all my CD’s for years and the CD and cases were just collecting dust in my room. Now that you’ve ripped and digitised all of your CD library – what do you do with your CD’s? One idea is to create a catalogue and then you can box or put away (or recycle) your CD’s and DVD’s giving you much more space to fill with books, CD’s or other stuff.
