Re: [ARSCLIST] More on cataloging

Off topic - my partner does transcription from all kinds of media from 
microcassettes to DVDs, and when I make her CDs from client DATS, no 
matter what the length Gracenote comes up with one or more odd titles. 
They don't always get it right that way! For commercial CDs it is quite 
accurate, but for "home made" ones they come up with the darndest 
things!

Farther off topic - does anyone here have need or interest in an Ampex 
ATR-102? A client has one for sale, needs some electronic work but in 
great shape generally. Get in touch if so.
