How many time you spent the first time you digged into theses tools ? i'm sorry but i'm ready to spend huge amount of time to learn tools like GCC or anything else that's complex. Not for sending mail.

I know this. i've spent a lot of time years ago to configure mutt to fetch my gmail/hotmail/free accounts and it worked pretty well. But when you change computer hardware what a hassle to reconfigure everything. Such a simple

Seems the correct project URL is : https://discferret.com That's interesting i was not aware of this project. I'll take a further look asap. Is there some feature/comparison sheet with Kryoflux available ?

Getting the best sound of a vinyl hifi system is another part of the fun (at least for me). There is a lot of things to tweak on a turntable that can improve sound: cartrigde alignment, use of different protractors, tonarm height, anti-skat

Seems more of a covers images repository than anything else. Worth to mention that covers scan quality is very good, far higher than average discogs cover scan quality.
