CDwiki

Just like FreeDB, except data is stored in a wiki.

Pros

• Collaborative updates are easy - many eyes = few bugs concept.
• Easily extensible
  • subpages within the wiki make holding extra data pretty easy. eg, /lyrics, assuming each DiscID (or rather, NCDI) has its own page.

Cons

• Need a non-wiki method of inserting data (wiki pure method might be tedious ;)
• Wiki markup may not be most appropriate without alterations?
• Need to formalise some of the layout of data...
• How do you deal with more than one disc having the same page?
  • NCDI should guarantee a unique ID - so this should be solved that way ;)
