A CDwiki would be just like FreeDB, except data is stored in a wiki, and the format more extensible.

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? (which wiki markup to use?!)
  • 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 ;)
