Most owned DVD - the Matrix: 145 owned.

Considering that everyone owns a copy of the Matrix, does this mean that DVD Spot only has 145 members?

I'll use them if they have an easy way to import discs from Profiler, but otherwise, I don't see any need for this site. It doesn't provide any features that DVD AF or Profiler don't already offer - now, if they had Guzzlefish type stats (although done better) and were fast and kept updated, THEN they'd be useful.

But right now, why use DVD Spot? What's it give you?

They are fast, they are kept very well updated. It has some features that the others don't: Last 3 bought, Last 3 watched, a seperate watched list, etc. There is any easy way to import from profiler. Export your collection to a .csv file and then upload that to DVDSpot. You might have to do a couple times if you have a large collection.

It might only have 145 members, but it is growing fast. It just opened up less than a month ago.

Looks good enough to try out. Very promising.

I don't own any of the Matrix films and I never will.

Wow, DVDSpot looks very promising. I will definately give it a try, but I think Profiler will still be #1 in my book

I joined a couple of weeks ago. Most of my DVDs are non-R1, and I've had to add almost all of them one by one (over 100 so far, and that's mainly the Korean/Japanese DVDs. I'm just getting to the R3 and R0 HK discs--so that'll be another couple hundred.)

Not that I'm complaining, but it is time-intensive. And because I don't know how to submit a picture to go along with the DVD information, most of my non-R1 collection is box after white box with "no cover."

To replace guzzlefish, I have been messing with dvdspot as well and am pretty impressed so far. They are missing a lot of R2 titles, but on the upside, they process new additions very quickly. Like one of mine was added within the hour. I am not joking. After dealing with guzzlefish, that seemed like a miracle to me.

There is a place to upload pictures at the bottom of the page you do your contributions. Hit Browse, click on your picture, and you are good to go.

If they'll import a CSV from Profiler then I may as well keep it updated. Maybe they can add all of Guzzlefish's features and pretty much make them obsolete.

Wouldn't hurt my feelings any.

i've been trying for the past 8 hrs to logon to Guzzlefish.com but the site appears to have vanished from the internet altogether

i'm not the least bit surprised :-(

The site comes up for me.

Thanks... a little on the annoying side wrt having to fill in all fields (I don't give out my name/location/name of people I loan stuff too unless I can help it) but those are all things easily worked around


WRT Guzzlefish I'm getting "name not found" errors from Netscape so it doesn't look good.

anyone else having this problem with not being able to pull up the guzzlefish website? i can't access it thru Netscape or IE :-(

Maybe, just maybe, they are updating the site and it will be up in its new improved version this evening or tomorrow.

Or, to be pessimistic, it could be gone for good.

I started to build my collection on DVD Spot... It's seems pretty cool.

Here fishy, fishy, fishy...

The last two days I get the "Web site is temporarily unavailable in DNS" error message from guzzlefish.com. Either this is the update we've all been waiting for or it's guzzled it's last fish. ;-)

Well, I submitted reviews for Guzzlefish, and was more than happy to keep on submitting material, and Dave just...went away. Oh well, that's why me likey the DVDAF.

I just heard from a reliable source that Dave pretty much handed the site over to CNET, and that the CNET programmers are working on updating the site now. Hopefully, it will be back up soon, and the updates will be more timely. After that, i'm sure there will be more changes, but as to what they are, or might be, i have no idea

I hope it goes back up and soon, I just spent one day uploading all my information into the site and hope that its all still there if it goes back up. Ugh, over 600 entries.

I 'd really like to see it up again. It was my favorite of all the online collection sites. I wonder how it will change in the hands of CNET.....


??????

Since the temporary demise of guzzlefish ive been at DVDspot putting my collection up there and i like it pretty much, i think i might stick there and forget about guzzlefish altogether. Its just a pain in the a$$ having to input your whole DVD collection all over again, what a process.

Well, I see Guzzlefish is up again. It's 8:32 CST on 8/16/04. Guzzlefish is definitely my least favorite of DVDPF, DVDAF, and Guzzlefish. But at least my collection is still there (even if it is incomplete!)

Thank god. Now I can go save my cd list and get ready to move it elsewhere too. I didnt want to lose all that.

Ya and not a single freakin update.

Poop
