I remember someone mentioning Cathy some years back. I was searching
for a cataloging program, but ended up using WhereIsIt. (Which works
okay for movies.)
I settled on "All My Movies" to catalog my movies. The problem, though,
is that I've got a lot of movies that still need to be added to it. I
just don't want to spend the time editing all those entries.
For my TV shows, I just need to know where they're stored.
