...I'm ready.   If anyone on the team happens to be listening, can you speak to the question of when the database gets updated?

We are actually expecting a fairly large update in the middle of November- I believe around November 14th to be exact. AMG and Muze are merging their data, so we will be getting a pretty significant increase in titles and cover images and possibly other info on the CD Details Pages at that time. Don't quote us as saying the actual companies of AMG and Muze are merging- we do not know that for sure. We just know the databases are being combined and that is good news for us (and you!).

Thanks so much for the quick response!  Very glad to hear it -- it'll be great to see what gets in there that hasn't been, before.  Sending good thoughts from the users end -- ICB

Have patience.  November is still eleven months away.

Um, How would we know when it happens? In the monthly newsletter perhaps? When depending on a third party (and fourth in this case) its best to be patient. Then a little more patient, then ...

The last time there was an update it came as part of a general upgrade that was very noticable -- and welcome.  It  was announced pretty widely...

Well, I don't know if this is good news or bad news, but the update already occurred- November 15th. We were actually told it would benefit their Muze clients more so than AMG, but we did receive a significant update.

I have many cds I might consider posting but are not listed.

One example is Daniel Amos (aka Da, DA etc) if you read the bio you can see some if the other albums, but they are not listed.

Can these be added manually?
