Hi Jazz North,
Your reply seems to be cutt off. Can you repost?
Don't know what happened. But here's the gist of my longwinded reply.
1. You can use Safari on the iPod/iTouch to connect to RacksandTags.com. You can upload your Orange cd database to this. I used this extensively in the San Francisco and Berkley Amoebas a couple of weeks ago. (Great used cd places, by the way)
2. Andrei has spoken about an iTouch/iPhone app that will make use of RacksandTags, but it hasn't been created yet.
3. There is no app that uses the Orange database directly and Andrei has indicated a reluctance to develop one, principally I think because he worries about trying to keep multiple versions of the database in sync (I would have the same worry).
The iPod application needs to be an offline one. I usually don
You might try one of the database apps that allows you to import CSV files (HanDBase, for example, or Ozymandias, though it is pretty old now; Ozymandias does have a Lite version for free to try) and export your Orange data using Database > Import and Export > Export to plain text. This will export only album level information, however.
I suspect the file format and many of the routines Andrei has developed are not compatible with the OS on the Apple devices and to develop an offline app would mean starting from scratch. I think OCD uses some elements of IE, which is not available on iPhone/iTouch.
