What would really make these useful is a barcode scanner, so you're not faced with typing in all kinds of data manually. As the OP said, when your CDs are all lined up on shelves, why do you need a big ole complex time-eating database? Then a checkout/checkin system would be easy, and actually useful. For example, if you loan out books or CDs, swipe them in and out, and then all you have to do is make notes like "loaned book to Tom. Tom likes to read in the bathroom- inspect carefully upon return."
