Hi Peter. I use a program called Audigen to catalogue all of my MP3 and WMA music. you simply copy and paste your music files into the database from anywhere on your computer, they could be held on different drives or even an external drive, and you are then able to browse by artist, album, genre or all tracks in a windows explorer interface in a single database. If you prefer you can use a web browser style interface that will present the same database in a web page with links for the categories. You can do simple and complex searches. For example, a simple search will fetch back perhaps all artists and albums and tracks with the word "Black" in them. A complex search could be something along the lines of selecting all tracks with the word black in the track name only where the year is 1979 and the bit rate is greater than or equal to 192kbps.
Another feature of audigen is that you can create a web server so that you can play or download your music from any computer with an internet connection and all functions are available in the same way. You can control who signs onto your server by setting up user names and passwords. This software cost me $17 and it's the best software buy I've ever made. The program is produced by red chair software so anyone familiar with notmad explorer or annipod explorer will be completely familiar with the interface. For those of you in the UK, I've written an article on Audigen that will appear in this month's Access IT magazine but if anyone would like further information, please contact me off list.
