Mac OS X CD Cataloguing Program

March 11, 2007 2:29 PM

Does anyone know of a mac program to catalogue cds - which will allow me to IMPORT my exisiting files (.csv) from my PC Music catalogue program?

I have 55,000 tracks listed on a CD cataloguing program ln my PC - but have moved to a mac - my program allows the export to a .csv file - but I need a mac program that can import the data - anybody know of one?
TIA

Delicious Library may do the trick.

From their site:
Import from a number of competing programs, or from tab-separated text files. Delicious Library stores your library in a standard XML file, so hAxOrZ can export to virtually any other format.

See also CDPedia, which also appears to be able to import from CSV and which stores to XML. For the discs you don't already have stored, you can import via CDDB search or scanning the barcode with your iSight or scanner.


CDpedia is $18, significant discounts if you get the companion DVD, book, and game 'pedias---essentially, each additional program is $10, and you can get all four together for $49.

CDpedia gets a thumbs-up from me, as does Bookpedia. The barcode/iSight feature is pretty cool and allowed me to catalog > 500 CDs in a day.

Delicious Library is pretty darn sweet. The camera scanning feature = genius.

If Delicious Library is anything like its PC clone, MediaMan (I really don't want to get into the whole who stole what code from whom argument), I'll third the recommendation... I heart having all my different media cataloged together... and it handles .csv nicely (again, who knows if they're all that similar, ymmv)
