Lovely app , perfect system! — Rindala Fayyad on CLZ Music

Means I have all my collection in my pocket. No more buying copies. — Graham Redfern on CLZ Music

I have had the Music Collector on my desktop for several years now, but just never got around to loading it up with my CD's and iTunes music. For the last couple of weeks, I have been going through all kinds of things in my house, scanning to my server, purging, tossing things I don't need anymore, etc., -- something I've been trying to do since I retired.

So ... I finally got to my CD's and Music Collector. Since the CD's were in another room, I decided to use my iPhone 6 to just scan them. Then I discovered that I needed to download the app (which I apparently hadn't done before). Then I discovered that it was a trial, and that I needed to buy the full app for $14.95 to get unlimited titles, which I did. Then I was just looking at emails from last week and discovered that I could have gotten the app for $9.99. Sheesh! I have now discovered that I need to get better at staying on top of these things. Especially with your software, which is superb! I guess you could say that yesterday was a day of discovery for my Collector usage. — Steve Westmoreland (USA) on Music Collector

Great app to keep my collection list close at hand so that I can check if I already have a music CD before purchasing. — J Mark Robinson on CLZ Music

Ottima sono anni che la uso. — Angelinobo on CLZ Music

I've had this product for about 15 years and it has become my faithful companion. When you have over 3000 cds there's no other way of keeping track of what you have, which performers, which orchestras, which conductors, labels, venues, etc. — Alfonso Uribe on CLZ Music

Great way to catalog my music collection. Bar code reading saves a ton of time. — Ken Plourde on CLZ Music

This app is simply brilliant. — A Google user on CLZ Music

Didn't remember that we had so many old vinyl. Maybe they are worth something. — A Google user on CLZ Music

Geweldige app voor muziek- en boekenliefhebbers. Prachtig overzicht van al je platen, cd’s en boeken. Zeer veel mogelijkheden en schitterende lay-out. Ik ben al jaren in het bezit van deze app en werk er nog steeds met veel plezier mee. — hub urlings on CLZ Music

Bought CLZ music for my iPhone. Liked it so I bought music collector for the Mac. Busy scanning cds. Have linked the 2 programmes and had support from the tech dept. All going well so far. Very impressed with tech support. Quick and very helpful. — rettot7 on CLZ Music

I can't tell you how much I appreciate this program. I wish I would have had it about 6,000 albums ago. Also the updates are much appreciated. Thanks and keep up the good work. — Dan Kranz (USA) on Music Collector

Great app to keep track of your music collection. Easy to use, continuous improvement and well integrated across platforms! — Peter Ostergaard on CLZ Music

I switched from Music Collector to the Music Connect software a few months ago. However the possibilities for classical music are less than the desktop version it works very well for me. Keep in mind that one of the nice things of playing vinyl is the cover with its information. No need to order everything in the software.
I customized my Genres into something that works for me together with a relation to the location of the record. Then I use tags to define my collection more into criteria I often use like Pianoconcertos or string quartets. So I use mostly the maps 'Genre', 'Location' and 'Tags' to easily find every record, grab it from the shelf and enjoy the music and information on the cover. — Johan Jongstra (Netherlands) on Music Collector

I have been a customer for many years and have especially enjoyed Movie Collector. I am absolutely delighted that now, with updates to Music Collector and associated apps, I have been able to import my music database into Music Collector and can use it as my primary reference for the collection.
I began collecting music in high school, and built my first database on an IBM mainframe (using keypunch machines) to catalog each album in 1969. I printed the list out on greenbar paper, and could only update it infrequently. I was able to optically scan this printout and import it into a dBase data base in the 80s, and that served me well for a number of years. Then when I went to Macs and moved the dBase data into FileMaker, and from there I was able to import the entire collection (some 2500 albums on tape, cassette, LP, and CD) into Music Collector via Connect.
THANK YOU for making this possible! — Jan Smith (USA) on Music Collector

I have over 15,000 individual cd’s and vinyl records. This software has been invaluable in organizing and managing my collection. The times I have needed to use support they have been very responsive and helpful. — Craig Wise (USA) on Music Collector

This is a great app to catalog your vinyl collection. Plus the fact that you can download the app to your phone helps tremendously when you are out purchasing vinyl and can't remember all of the albums you have. — Steven Mathews (USA) on Music Collector

I bought my very first 45 rpm record around 1963 and I still have it today. I've been collecting records ever since but I really didn't start collecting seriously until the 1980's. At that time I began going to record conventions, buying records through mail order catalogs and from the classified ads in the back of Goldmine Magazine. I collect vinyl record albums and 45rpm records. I lost track of the number of records I have but would guess around 2000 record albums and around 3000 45rpm records. I mostly concentrate on the 45rpm records today because the albums take up too much room.

I began archiving my collection in the 1980's using a typewriter. You talk about time consuming...this was before personal computers of course. I still have those pages of records that I typed back then. I eventually stopped archiving them because it took so long to do. When I got my first computer in 1992, I retyped my record archives into the computer which took just as long as the typewriter but at least I could print them out on my printer. All through the 1990's I wished that there was a software program that would make it easier to archive my collection.

When I finally discovered Collectorz.com, I knew my wish had come true. A software program to keep track of my records. Although I collect mostly old original vinyl 45rpm records and have to manually type them in, it's still 100% better than when I was archiving them using the typewriter. I love the fact that I can include an actual photo of my records in the archive too.

I want to thank Alwin and his associates for producing such wonderful archiving tools and offering the BEST customer support on the internet today. I know I have been a pain in the neck several times with problems but Alwin and crew have patiently walked me through them successfully. — David Fields (USA) on Music Collector

I purchased the Music edition of this service some years ago now, and find it to be essential software for logging my large collection of CD's. I produce and present classical music programmes for a local community radio station, so an efficient and easy-to-use disc search facility is essential.
Long may it reign! — David Backhouse (United Kingdom) on Music Collector

Music is the art of combining vocal and or instrumental sounds together to create expressions of an effect, like emotions and situations. Music can describe feelings and thoughts that many people can have, but they can not express for what ever reason. Music is acutally a noun that means musica in Latin and has originated from the Greek word muse. The word music has synonyms like melody, harmony, and song. Music is a natural tool because it is a form of communication. When animals sing their songs to one another, this is music used for communicating and mating. Humans use music for many different reasons, such as entertainment or to excerise.

For expression and or communication purposes, music has many other great uses. Music is also beneficial for a person's health and even their mood. Studies have shown that people who listen to music are much more smarter, retain more information, and are in better moods for longer periods of time than those people who did not listen to any music at all throughout the day. Plants and babies can also benefit from listening to music. Music should be included in every one's life, either the radio or even online, for an expression of themselves and to be more healthy.

Music Genres

There are many different music genres for a person to enjoy. Each genre contains it's own unique sound, beats, lyrics, and feelings. Each music genre includes varied music artists and performers that produce the same type of music with a certain sound in common. The type of music genre a person enjoys listening to depends on personal preference, mood, or activity. Many people enjoy listening to multiple music genres, while many music artists and performers are included in multiple music genres.The most popular music genres are:

Rock Alternative Country Pop Rap/Hip Hop Blues

When I hear a certain song that is played and listen to the lyrics being sung, this can describe a situation or experience that I may be going through at that time along with the particular emotions that are felt. This can help me to feel better by knowing that another person has been through this type of challenge also, and or has felt the same emotions about certain things. A special song, with amazing lyrics and even a good rhythm, can always mean so much to a person.

I'm collecting now LP's & CD's over 40 years ! The CLZ Programm is a good one to join your own music-collection. You can use it very easy and if you have a problem their is always someone that helps you.
I don't want to miss CLZ Music Colector ! — Ralph Siebe (Germany) on Music Collector
