CD Collection Software - Catalog your CD collection

Convenient way to access entire CD collection. — A Google user on CLZ Music

YEARS ago I was looking for a program to keep track of my growing CD collection. I'd found a few, but none of them did as much as I wanted out of the program. In fact, if there were two or three features I wanted I felt pretty lucky.
I found one program I liked more than the others, but it was bought by some other company and dropped out of sight. Now I had a choice of using a years-old program with no updates and no support or finding a new program.

I don't remember how I happened across Collectorz, but the first time I used it I thought "MAN! Where has this been all the time I've been searching?" Then there was an update.
FANTASTIC! Here's where it all goes south.

WRONG! The update actually not only made what already existed better, but it added MORE things! More HELPFUL things! I figured the company would eventually sell out to the highest bidder (that's just how my luck runs sometimes) and I'd be looking for a replacement again.

NOT SO! Not only is it still around, it's better, easier to use, and more capable than it was when I first fell in love with it around 10 years ago.

Another shocker.

Contact them for technical support. Not only do you always get and answer, but (and this is maybe even more hard to believe) THEY'RE ALWAYS RIGHT!

If you get this program to catalog your CDs (or movies, comics, games, etc.) and you DON'T appreciate the obvious thought and planning that goes into providing a world-class program you really must not need an 'inventory' program as badly as you thought!

In short, I've bought a whole lot of software in the 30+ years I've been dealing with computers, but I don't believe there's been one I like as much or would miss more than Collectorz! — Mike Kimmel (USA) on Music Collector

Allows me to keep track of my CD collection while out and about. — Paul Gibbs on CLZ Music

Great app for keeping your CD collection on file. I can see this being great for insurance claims and knowing what album you have. Over 400 albums logged and no problems with it not knowing any of the albums. I also use the other app that keeps track of my movie collection. Well done. — Ray Casar on CLZ Music

The most brilliant app to catalogue my CD collection. — John Lewis on CLZ Music

Allows me to keep track of my CD collection while out and about. — Paul Gibbs on CLZ Music

Absolutely love this app, can't find anything bad to say about it. If you have a CD collection and want to catalog it this is the only way to go. — waid1965 on CLZ Music

Use for cataloguing a very large CD collection, finds pretty much everything, synch between cloud, iPad and android phone is brilliant! — Tim Brooks on CLZ Music

First of all, congratulations for this nice app. What a precious help to organise a CD collection. — Philippe Hombroukx on CLZ Music

Perfect for those with a Vinyl and CD collection. Worth the $15. — Kyle Hancock on CLZ Music

Works really well on keeping track of my CD collection. — guyfromedmonton on CLZ Music

Nice and useful app for those who have big CD collections. — Ete321 on CLZ Music

I do not have a huge vinyl collection as I am just starting to rebuild my record collection. At present I have 146 albums and box sets, with another 10 albums on the way here. I had a large CD collection, but I have been winding this down as I build my vinyl collection so I am not sure yet whether I will catalogue this as well. To date I have been using a Discogs derivative "Discographic" and found it quite good, but very basic, with very limited sorting, or editing capability. I have completed entering my collection into CLZ Music and hence the main title above. The searchable database for album recognition is not as good as Discogs and you do end up spending more time having to take pictures of the LP sleeve/cover. This is one area that I would appreciate improvement on. In addition I had to enter the data because the ability to transfer the data from Discographic did not work effectively for me. Now this maybe related to my computer knowledge level, but I would think that for collectors with a real collection of size this would be a major deterrent to converting to CLZ Music. The above points do not detract from the fact that this app/program (I have the desktop version as well) is very versatile, editable and a good program that has shown a commitment by the developer over the years to deal with issues and to improve, plus expand it's capabilities. I would have given it 5 stars if not for the above points. — gcurren on CLZ Music

If you have a small or large CD collection, as I do, you must get this app. It is invaluable in tracking your collection. It does everything. — Wayne Fottrell on CLZ Music

For years I kept an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of my CD collection... This is so much easier, and also populates each listing with album artwork, track lists, and times. Scanning by barcode is also quite the timesaver. Great! — Reximus Prime on CLZ Music

Many years ago I get fed up with looking for a particular track I had on a compilation album and set about looking for a database for cataloguing my cd collection and found CLZ Music Collector and have never looked back. I can now go out and buy cd's knowing I can check if I have it via the CLZ Music Collector app on my phone, which is sync with the laptop. Keep up the good work. — Ken Gillingham on CLZ Music

This is an excellent way to track your cd collection. Intuitive and and excellent search function. I have over 600 CD's loaded and it so easy to find a particular artist or track or album and then find exactly where in the collection it is. — harry2305 on CLZ Music

Intuitive and easy to use. Keeps track of my cd collection and makes retrieval and collection management a breeze. All the other information, track listing, cover art and details are just icing on a very tasty cake. — Rob Nelms on CLZ Music

Yesterday, found app. by accident. Intrigued, read this and comparable products' reviews. Downloaded item, quickly and easily assembled smallish CD collection in a clear, concise and wonderfully accessible way. Plus: Had difficulty downloading an album, contacted customer service and they responded in a timely, helpful and professional manner. I'm quite happy with product! — Jmandjs on CLZ Music

The Music Collector software is incredible, so easy to use, but powerful. I wouldn’t use anything else to catalogue my CD collection. — Gary Parkinson (United Kingdom) on Music Collector

If you have a large CD collection and you ask yourself "did I already buy this one?"... then you need this app. I bought the home software for my Mac and needed a way to check my collection while standing in the store where I buy my used CDs. This app is easy to use and reliable. I don't waste my time writing reviews for apps I use once in a while... This app gets used weekly if not daily. I wouldn't recommend this to casual music listeners, but if you collect, regularly discuss music, and have trouble remembering specifics about your collection... this purchase is a no-brainer... do it already. — Cinch on CLZ Music

Just downloaded this app to put my CD collection and it is excellent. Really easy to use. — Ar1804 on CLZ Music

This works great! Being able to scan saves a ton of time. Thank you for the App, worth the money if you have a large CD Collection. — buconyr on CLZ Music

You have the best cd collection program out there and the best support anyone can ask for. Keep up the great work.
And I will remain a satisfied customer forever. — Eric Crow (USA) on Music Collector

I think your software is great, and I'm enjoying working with it. It's going to take me quite a while to catalog my huge (5,000+) CD collection and then I'll start on the vinyl. Hope I get it all done before I die!
Thanks again for your hard work at making this a fun program to use! — Kevin Rowe (USA) on Music Collector

I want to express my thanks and appreciation to the fine folks at Collectorz.com. The Music Collector software is simply fantastic! I’ve been looking periodically for many years for software to manage my 6,000 item record & CD collection. Music Collector does everything I could have wanted and more, and I’m thrilled to find it!
Thanks also to Sytske for the kind and gracious support. Good customer service means as much to me as does a good program, and they offer both. I expect to be with them for a long, long time. — Roger Richmond (USA) on Music Collector

As a working dj, although i use mainly computer based media players i also have a back up twin cd player. I need to be able to find songs in my cd collection quickly obviously and also need a quick and easy method of adding details of new cds.
CLZ is the perfect solution. If my computer went down completely i can still find songs quickly having imported the collection to my mobile phone.
Highly recommended! Excellent bit of software. — Djbobleeds on CLZ Music

I finally finished cataloging my cd collection (1,993 in total - A-Z only). It has taken about 5 months off and on. Having a small break before I tackle the compilation CDs, there are hundreds of them, LOL.
One thing I did discover while adding the CDs is that there we have so many cds that we had double, triple and sometimes quadruple copies of the same album (we will be having a garage sale one day so we will be able to sell them then)
BTW I love this program, makes it so much easier to get the job done. — Jackie Russett (Australia) on Music Collector

A decent CD collection App. — Spyraker on CLZ Music

This is a great app for all users of music collectoz.
Easy to use and great to keep up with my CD collection. — Petrus Plekker on CLZ Music
