If you are serious about MP3 collecting you need this tool! DOSBase is a multifunctional list creation utility for mp3 collectors. It is a win32 console application with an easy to use interactive interface. It is intended to be used by collectors who name their mp3 files with a particular naming convention (such as title - artist.mp3 or (title)_artist.mp3. DOSBase intelligently extracts all information (titles and artists) and creates nice looking TXT files or HTML documents you can use to trade with or keep inventory (example html output , example ASCII text output). If you don't feel comfortable with it, keep using it! Chances are the features you are looking for are in this utility. This utility is definitely worth taking the time to learn!!

DOSBase is freeware and may be used and distributed as much as you so desire. However, no cost may be placed on DOSBase including any usage of it. I'm considering taking the existing code and putting a windows interface on it. Would anyone find this useful? I know some of you enjoy the DOS type feel of the program.
