ACE
look forward to that, I don't use discogs that much, mainly as I find it a bit confusing. but an app would be ace, been wanting to catalogue to collection for a while now.

Oh bugger - does this mean I'm going to be in shops queueing behind lots of phone tapping carpet bagging online traders just to get a look at the vinyl?

Umm, probably not. Round here they rake the lot down into a shopping basket and retire to a comfy armchair to do the online thing.

I don't know if I think this would be handy or it would bring about a load of twats on ebay who buy from chazzas to make a quick buck. I like to go on instinct and knowledge like everyone here built up on years of loving and discovering new music. I do get caught in 2 minds sometimes on some things but rarely when its a pound punt.

This app said it went for 200 pounds on this site, yes but that was probably years ago its been reissued since then plus it looks like someone has taken a dremmel to it.

There's enough discogs related apps out there already for that to have already happened.

Looks like this is an updated version of Milkcrate, which I hardly use as it is. Be interesting to give it a go anyway.

Sure am jealous of the comfy armchair in your Swedish Charity shop, is it a common thing for the customer in Sweden? I don't think I've ever seen that over here unless I'm in one that sells second hand furniture as well.

I've been using discographer for android for about a month. Better than the others I've used so far.

Most shops here sell furniture as well.

I wouldn't say common, it's more a few people that I commonly see with a pile in a sofa or armchair. Most often the old man who, if there is new stock, just grabs the first inches from every crate to his cart. Then he probably spends the best part of the afternoon in the sofa with his pile, looking at every record from 5cm distance. He must have a terrible eye condition. Eventually I think he puts most of it back to the crate.
Downside is getting there just after him, nothing to see in the crates. Upside is getting there a few hours after him, stuff in the crates you'd think wouldn't remain for 5 minutes.

I must confess, I have taken the armchair option, but mostly where the crates are in a very uncomfortable position.
