http://www.allgame.com/ I'm surprised more people don't know of this site.

I use the backloggery for everything game related, and delicious library when I really feel like micromanaging every detail of my products (and keeping track of manga/comics) The barcode reader sadly isn't as reliable as I'd want, so I have to set aside a whole day that I'm home alone if i ever want to keep track of my comic book collection from years ago (it's in the hundreds D8 )

Yeah, I sometimes find it troublesome to scan in poor light sometimes. However, I found out that Amazon searches all fields including barcode number. So if you add a new item (Cmd+N) and then type in the number under the barcode then it will find it instantly.
For example, if you hit cmd+N and then type 5055060950005 (takes about 2 seconds do read and type once you get fast enough) then it will instantly come up with Resident Evil for the Gamecube.
However, I'm presuming support for comic books is no where near as comprehensive as games, books, dvds and cds.

Hey, does anyone here still use Game Collector Pro? I stopped using it a few months ago because it didn't list the games alphabetically, by system. Does anyone know if this can be done? Maybe I just had an out-of-date version? Any help with this would be nice. Thanks.

I use The Backloggery for my games, as well.
