Best mp3 database?

[premasagar]

Any opinions on the best mp3 database - something to organise
my music into genres, albums, artists and so on?

Ideally this would include a standalone version that can be added
to CD-Rs or DVD-Roms to display what is on that disc. Or at least something that would create a database on the hard drive for
known CD-R's or DVD-Roms.

I am trying out MEXP plugin for Winamp. Is anything better?

Thanks,
PS.

cataloguing all file types on HDD partitions, CDs and DVDs: WhereIsIt?
best software i know for doing that, but $39,95 is much money;

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check them out. Do you know off hand if these databases all function as an easy way to play the mp3's on a hard drive or removable disc? - i.e. select songs and add them to a playlist then play them, as you can in MEXP???

-ps.

This looks good. Designed for showing you whats on discs as well as hard drives, and it's free. But it doesn't (yet) seem to allow you to display tracks and albums according to genre. Promised for the future....
