Julien et al,

1. The ability to list Test Pressings. And when the Test Pressing is for a planned release that was cancelled to be able to add the cancelled release to the database.
2. On 'rotters' made at more than one facility the ability to identify which facility manufactured one's defective copy.
3. A photo of the rear of the jacket and possibly even one of the insert. Retailer RechoBanchou does this.
4. When adding a new title, the ability to add a publisher or Manufacturer that is not listed. For example, the Test Pressing of '1941' that I have coming lists the manufacturer as Philips Eindhoven (Netherlands).
5. There MUST be unknown disc manufacturers, because I have several releases where a manufacturer is indicated on the jacket which is not in the database and once I typed in the mint marks the manufactuer could not be indicated.
6. I love the feature that lists the total cost of one's collection had they paid full retail. How about the option to select a specific currency, say the U.S. dollar. Then U.K., H.K. Japanese, Netherhands, Germany, France releases would all be added to one's collection in the specified currency. In my case that would be U.S. dollars.
7. A rarity rating that is fluid. The more copies added to people's collections the lower the rarity. The fewest - higher.

Just some thoughts.

STAY AWESOME! :)

Number 6 would be very difficult. After all, do you use the exchange rate for the date of release of the disc (if known), which would require a complex calculation routine? Do you use the current exchange rate, which may not reflect very well the value of the currency when the disc came out? And some of the currencies (Italian Lira for example) don't exist anymore, so it would be necessary in that case to take the Permanent Euro Conversion Rate & multiply through by the Euro exchange rate. Et cetera. I don't really see the point!

It would simply make things easier for me personaly when calculating the total amount I would have spent.

STAY AWESOME! :)
