I look forward to reading this thread in a couple months and see if anyone's opinions changed once people learn how to actually use it. The complaints I'm reading are all invalid, as people just haven't figured out how to use it yet.4 points -

Anyone who leaves their house to move someplace safe, please don't forget to shut off your gas and breakers before you leave. Also, I know Juan would never leave behind his little baby pupper, but as for the rest of you, please no one leave your pets behind. That's shitty.3 points -
New Toadies album out 9/8. There's a limited signed, red vinyl with a gatefold option that's reasonable. Standard is $20 from the label. Currently it's $11.99 on Amazon Prime. http://store.kirtlandrecords.com/product/toadies-the-lower-side-of-uptown-signed-ltd-edition-red-gatefold http://store.kirtlandrecords.com/product/toadies-the-lower-side-of-uptown-vinyl https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073WHRZW3/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 A couple of songs have been released already. http://loudwire.com/toadies-mama-take-me-home-exclusive-song-premiere/3 points

I signed up for both DF and Discogs at the same time when I started cataloguing and caring about my record collection after over a decade apart. I immediately found DF to be an entirely unacceptable website and to this day my head spins when people take such strong pro-DF stances. DF was an objectively poor quality databasing website and I have yet to hear a cogent negative complaint against Discogs but I am listening. If you're not the only person looking for such extensive cataloguing capabilities, then it sounds like you've noticed a new opportunity. If you can code and database, I'd recommend you give it a go. Since Discogs is for music - I don't think anyone is suggesting it as the solution for your music collection, plus your anime, Viva La Bam DVDs, Bartman comics, and fidget spinner collection. But seriously, if no one is making what you want (and it sounds like you looked), you should think about making it. This is fascinating to me. It sounds like you don't know how to use the filters built into Discogs despite it is so intuitive and easy. You can filter by different options which should cover nearly anyone's needs, plus choose how many items to show per page (up to 250), and change the page layout between three different views - large covers, text with covers, and text only. Using the filters can get you alphabetical and text only in a matter of seconds. To your complaint about difficulty in putting a collection together in discogs, it is a databasing website and (un)fortunately data quality is important so we're going to have to deal with the extra few seconds in choosing the actual pressing we have and contributing to the database. Seriously, spend a few minutes on the site clicking on things. If you still cringe about it, then learn how to use excel.3 points

You can add all those details to each album in your collection. I do. Like I said most of the complaints are just from people who don't fully know how to use Discogs yet.3 points -

its happening. I talked to the merch guy after the show and he told me the whole story of getting the rights. he said Atlantic (Warner) sold them to a company in Europe, thats why it took so long to get the rights back. The are going to tour for it and have a repress available next year.3 points -

coreystevens88 and 2 others reacted to OU818 for a topic
Yeah but the point of that is to create a uniform, accurate system. How many typos or incorrect variants do you think exist among all DF lists? Discogs has a higher barrier of data entry but so many more features. Most of the complaints in this thread are about how the features are too much effort even though they accomplish 10x more than DF if used well. If you don't want something more complex than DF wouldn't it just be easier to keep your own plain text list? Something I never understood which is why I gave up on DF3 points -

I use both Discogs and DeadFormat and see the value in both but much prefer the simplistic look and how customizable DF was when browsing lists. I could type in whatever info I want (i.e. color, limited pressing numbers) and could upload the picture I took and posted to my Instagram account of that record. Discogs is nice in that it will detail the exact pressing that I have, which I like, especially for older stuff. Anyone know of any other sites to create a customizable list and upload pictures associated with it? I guess it doesn't really have to be a vinyl specific site. Also, any idea how to download all of the pictures I've uploaded to DF without doing it individually?haha1 point -
I was blown away by how it all came together (In 17) and then gave us even more questions to think about (In 18), leaving it open to continue somehow later on (in a new season/book/or even not at all.) I can't wait to rewatch it all. Part 17 was my favorite episode of Twin Peaks ever.1 point

Same here, I also sort with a folder for linked artists so I will have a folder for the major band and then all side projects and solo things can be grouped under the same folder. Just click on the headers and it will sort it in whichever column you've clicked on and the direction of sort you choose. Also yes it should be the exact variant if the user has catalogued their collection properly.1 point
