I was thinking that it would be interesting if you could see the number of people who own a specific album as recorded in their collection. Similar to how rateyoumusic logs that kind of information, but maybe not on such a detailed scale. I'm not sure how difficult such and addition would be but It seems like a decent idea.

Anyways, just opening the topic up for discussion, and yes I'm aware it would only be implementable in v2, so no need to say it. :lol:

This seems like a good enough topic to throw my suggestion in. Could we perhaps have a feature that cross-references your reviews and your collection? That way, when you review something, a little check will appear next to that item in your collection and vice versa. I realize it's not such an important feature, but I think it would be cool.

Go to the mainpage, on the search selection choose Collection and enter the album name in the text box...

Hmm, very noobish of me. Oh well thanks, there should be a link on an albums page to that. At least that would be a valid addition. Plus Noktorn got to make his suggestion so it isn't an entirely wasted thread. Oh another thing that search function doesn't really tell you how many people have a certain album. If you type an album that is s/t then you get every release by the artist so to see how many people actually have said album you would have to count it yourself, doable just not user friendly.

Actually, since I use my collection page to track what I have, what version and format I have them in, and what I need to look for, I think it would be nice to have a small "header" box at the top of the collection page for notes that apply to the whole collection.
