Database for music cds/track info

[hansov]

I need to create a database for my music cds with a) location in rack, b) album, c) artist and c1)......cxx) track names. Anybody know of the best way of going about this? For mp3s I use Creative Mediasource which works fine. However what I want to create now is a database of my cd collection so as to be able lay my hands on a piece of music quickly.

It's actually designed for organising collections of live recordings, but this might do the trick for you...

Freeware too, which is good.

You could always just use a folder naming strategy to store tracks and perhaps also something like Tag&Rename to help automate this for files that already have ID3 tags. If you Google around you will find lots of tips and tricks for using a filesystem based "database" for storing digital audio track files.
