Are there any good ones? Even if they're not free? I almost completed entering mine at Skivsamling.nu until the place shut down ("temporarily"). So, any ideas?

I can't think of any besides that one - I put my whole collection up there and am now unable to add to it.Grr.

i don't understand why anyone would bother with those sites - isn't it easier to just do it on your PC in excel and convert it to HTML tables and throw it up on tripod? or is the aim just to impress other people in the 'community'?

Well,that might be an underlying suspicion but the site is a nice way to arrange trades and sales.

forgive me jumping in with a tangiental side issue, but could someone explain what "anorak-wearing trainspotters" means, anyways? I get that its the Britspeak way of saying Pencilneck Geek, Grit-eatin Freak...but what exactly is an anorak...some silly kind of hat? And what does trainspotting mean anyway? And why would Irvine Welsh name a book after it?

anorak = padded coat, like a parka etc.
trainspotter = someone who collects engine numbers/names from standing on platforms, visiting engine sheds etc - aims to spot every railway engine in country. became considerably less interesting i imagine with advent of diesels and electrics

Ahhhhh. Now that "camelspotting" joke from Monty Python makes sense.

Actually Helium is a rather good Windoze programs to organise your MP3s, and it has a nice HTML list generator...

There is also recordnderd. You can make lists of the records you are are looking for, you want to sell or just a list of all your records for personal use.
