MusicBuddy: Vinyl & CD Catalog

Great app for cd database.

This is a beautiful, very intuitive application. Adding albums by scanning ean or searching inline is quick and convenient. I added the first 50 albums in a half hour without rushing. You can add lots of details and select the right version. For me this is all I need. Thanks for this wonderfull application.

just upgraded to pro and i love it , you can make a pdf backup and synch with icloud and use the app on ipad and iphone , i just miss one thing ,a list view off formats , vinyl , cd , 7” single etc , for all the rest great

Very nice to have and user friendly.

Eindelijk een nette manier om mijn verzameling bij te houden. Eenvoudig in gebruik, synchronisatie tussen iPad en iPhone, backup naar Dropbox, prima hoor. Erg handig ook om een wishlist te maken. Ultieme test over de bruikbaarheid is denk ik tijdens een platenbeurs.

Categorizing albums has never been easier. No longer entering music data by hand or having to burn a CD to have info stored on a computer. Multiple ways to inquire about data; scan bar codes or manually enter info. Fifty albums are free with app; Five dollars gets unlimited albums. With a few thousand cds, this is a bargain. So far no issues with crashes. Like every thing new, navigation takes a little getting used to but nothing that causes frustration. They have a FAQ section or email them.

inevitably where there's an update, one of my systems will return “sync disabled”, requiring me to re-enable it and then wait for my library to sync again. quite frustrating. at the very least, it could remember which service i had selected previously instead of forcing me to choose one again. also, a proper Mac version would also be welcome, rather than the iPad app running in Mac OS. definitely works and is better than nothing, but having a proper Mac UI would be a delight. it's also frustrating when it comes to adding albums. about 5% of the time, an album won't be in whatever database Music Buddy uses, even fairly common stuff. it happens often enough to be a pain. it'd be great if we could then submit albums we enter manually to that database to help others avoid the same issue. and entering albums manually could be expedited if there was a native Mac version. just a thought. but it's relatively straightforward to use, if a bit clunky here and there, and has helped me avoid buying dupes more than once.

Limited use. After spending an hour to enter cd’s you get a message that you have reached the limit. You must pay. Should have made that clear first. I don’t recommend

Any application that prompts me to rate it three times in less than 5 minutes gets docked two stars.

I started collecting vinyl last year and just got this app to track what albums I have. I love that you can customize your categories and usually when you use the barcode scan function all of the info will be correct. I use this to track my old CD collection now too and it works very well.
