Subject: Module submission Music::DB
From: upload@no-spam (Perl Authors Upload Server)

The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:

modid: Music::DB DSLIP: bdpOp description: Relational DB and stats of music collections userid: TWH (Todd Harris)
chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules)
communities:
none
similar:

rationale:

Music::DB makes it easy to create relational DBs of music collections. It has its own internal schema to represent the relationships between artists, albums, genres, and so forth.
Although the schema is hard-coded, the database is not - Music::DB uses a database adaptor based approach for different RDBMs (currently only MySQL is supported).

Databases can be created from tab-delimited flat files, XML files (of the sort used by iTunes), or read from music files directly.

In addition to the databasing facilities, Music::DB comes with a variety of modules for querying and reporting on collection. Also included at no extra charge or some handy GD-based scripts that generate, say, histograms of the growth of your collection over time!

Music::DB fits most appropriately in the Music:: namespace and not under, say MP3:: as it can handle more than just MP3 files.

Is this just music files, or can it handle things like audio books and recorded talks?
