Recommend a good Flac cataloging tool

I'm looking for a program that lets me keep track of my 1000 disc Flac archive. I'm on a Mac too.

What? You want a listing?

If you cd to the directory in question and list recursively you'll get that. Or use an AppleScript:

All the CDs are ripped.

I'm not looking for a way to play them.

I'm looking for a program that will let me keep a running list by artist, album, year, etc. Also something i could print out.

The "cataloguer" tool in Media Rage will do that.

Possibly, you could do this with Stephen's new program "Play", too. I blush to admit it

but I haven't got round to installing it. But it certainly plays FLAC, and it has got a playlists. I know you said you don't wish to play the files, but if you can populate a playlist with them, it may be possible to print the playlist or save it as a textfile or something. Worth a look, anyway, I'd think:

I was playing with a lot of programs today and so far I found filemake to be the best at cataloging my Flac files
