    I use MusicBrainz and donate every month - yeah data is not perfect, but you can go and fix it yourself if needed, and the UI is extremely functional without any frills.

    I’m still working on my physical music management application. It integrates with MusicBrainz and Last.fm, so that I can easily add records, scrobble them, and search/track stats. …
