Version: MediaMan 2.60.1
"Great Software...why the new charge?"
Pros: I love the ease that this software provides in terms of adding media to the collection. It is as simple as entering a barcode (if you have it), or a keyword. It uses Amazon.com to search, so you are likely to get what you are looking for. You can even get the appropriate covers for DVDs, VHS tapes, Video Games, CD's and more. It is very user friendly in form and function. You can display your collection as a standard list, or a virtual shelf. You can export your file information, too. This is great inventory software.
Cons: My minor con is that there is no way to enter in information for items like video game console hardware, or computer hardware, and the like. So you can enter in your video games, but you can't enter in the console you use to play them. My major problem with this software, and why it has gotten only three stars from me despite being excellent, is that it was previously FREE. Now they are only giving a thirty day trial, and asking close to $40 for it. I think that is unfair. If it was meant to be sold for so much money, then it should have been so from the beginning. I do not intend to pay for the new release.

Version: MediaMan 2.60.1
Pros: This is the best catalogue program I have found for my DVD collection....easy to use, FREE, and I love the bookshelf view. You add an item and it brings up a list of appropriate titles; pick one and you get ratings, reviews, and a graphic of the cover.....so simple to use! If your search doesn't bring anything up, you have the option of adding your own details.
All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you for creating this piece of software - it's a gem!
Cons: Wish it would give more search sites. If it's not listed on one of the Amazon sites (U.S., Britain, Canada, or France), you have to add your own, which isn't really that hard, but you don't get the reviews and ratings. Would be nice to be able to go to another site. But hey, it's free, and much better than some of the commercial or shareware catalogue software...

"Absolutely the coolest database that I've ever used."
Pros: Great for creating your own library for any number of books, movies, music. The access to Amazon is probably the best part as well as the virtual shelf. You get a full description without having to type pages and pages of information. Extremely user friendly.
Cons: Probably the only con I can think of is no print option to print out a list of movies, etc.
