- Keep track of your albums and wishlist, sort them by band, year, rating or purchase date
- Keep track of release dates of albums in your wishlist
- See the albums you haven't yet voted for and do it very conveniently right on the Collection page
- Show your collection to other users and see their collections
And coming after we have enough entries:
- We will analyze your favorite bands, album collection, ratings and try to find users with similar tastes and maybe make some suggestions about other bands or albums you might find interesting
- Our own charts will show how many people own an album and which albums are currently 'hot'
We are also open to any suggestions about additional features/uses of Album collection.
You can add albums from your Collection page, as well as using the 3 new buttons under album images:
- I have it! means just that - that you already own the album
- Just got it recently - means that you've acquired this album within the last few days - this will add the album with the purchase date set to current day. Mainly for the charts, but you might also find it useful.
- Add to my wishlist - add the album to your wishlist
Another way to add albums is the albums list. You can filter the albums there in any way you want and then add them one by one using the buttons.
Have fun!

I'm curious, will it be possible in the future to rate our albums not on the site? Do the ratings take up too much space/memory or is it just too irrelevant?

Written by Syk on 03.10.2007 at 15:48 I don't think it will ever happen. The rating system allows only featured bands, and I don't think modifying it is worth the effort...

Better spend that time on expanding the database a bit.

OK yeah, thanks for the answer edit - possible bug, my wishlist seems to be stuck in "sort by year" mode...

is it possible for there to be a way to search for albums that are on anyones tradelist - cos at the moment u cant search for an album that u may want, u have to snoop around looking for it - just a suggestion

Well, after five days, I have gone through every band and added the albums I have by them. Good work Ivan, I have been waiting for something like this for a long time.

I have to say I really enjoy this feature. It's really easy to use and finally gives me a place to post my collection. Nice work.

Could there be an option to sort by Additional info (I mean what's entered on the user's collection page, not the album's own page on MS) and to search through this box on Collection pages in the same way that you can search through tracklists on the Album index page?

I'd like to suggest the removal of the neighbors. As I van said it's heavy and it's not actually offering anything to the site or the users. So I'd say it's a waste of resources...

Written by iaberis on 10.10.2007 at 16:27 It's only wasting resources when it's being updated, so don't worry about it. I personally think it's fun, and sometimes even useful...

Written by iaberis on 10.10.2007 at 16:27 Yeah, it could be really useful to meet people with the same tastes as you, chat about bands, etc. You might even have people with similar favourite bands getting you into some new music that you like but didn't know about!

In light of this last argument, I get the feeling the neighbour points for having a same favourite band shouldn't be quite so high...

Written by Bad English on 14.10.2007 at 23:31 Well you are not far off. I have a bout 1000 cd's at the place I live and a couple of hundred cassettes and vinyl as well plus all my mp3s the rest of the vinyl, cassettes & cd's are at my parents place (those are the very rare ones plus the ones I never play) because I don't have room for that. Ask Markku how small the place is I live he has seen it.
