Enough CD’s To Fill A Catalog

By Eric | September 11, 2007 11:30 am

In other news, I’m in the process of being my usual anal self and cataloging all of my CD’s with a nifty program called ReaderwareAW, which lets me use my old CueCat barcode scanner (the freebie from Radio Shack that got hacked in like 2 hours) to scan the barcodes on the backs of the CD’s, and then grabs the info from Amazon and stuffs it into the database. Of course, with all the promos, imports, and other crap I have, it took awhile, and there was a fair amount of manual entry involved. The good news is, all of the CD’s are in there, in one form or another. The bad news is now the tweaking begins. Getting record labels, track listings, covers, and all that stuff correct is going to take some time. Be right or don’t be. The neat thing about the program is that it allows you to make custom HTML “reports”, so I’ll have something really nice to look at once I’m done, rather than the simple list I have on the site now. Don’t hold your breath though, I’m sure it’s going to take awhile!
