Cdcat 2.0

Cdcat is graphical, QT-based, multiplatform (Linux/Windows) catalog program which scans the directories/drives you want and memoryze the filesystem, including the tags of mp3's, and store it in a small file.

The database is stored in a gzipped XML format, so you can hack it, or use it if necessary.

And the program can store the content of some specified files up to a limit size if you want. (for example: *.nfo).
