I think that could be great to allow to add products from other quality sources such as:
allmusic.com
allmovie.com
allgame.com
juno.co.uk [for music]
psyshop.com [music]
what do you think?

1) May result in duplicate data (may be avoided if upc/ean codes are required)
2) May not be legally allowed to use the data, Amazon has an api and data use is allowed.
I will be adding data from IMDB to suppliment the dvd data. I will be adding the movie credits as I feel these are classed as public domain information.

big deal..
Well, should be great to find a way to add more sources, I'm from Argentina (in example) and not all my music is on Amazon.

For different countries, their info-system(code) for those product maybe different also. For example, sometimes you can find two different cover pages for same CD in amazon.uk and and amazon.com.
I hope in the future, Listal could allow users add cover page and name by themselves. the cover page may be put in another website(flikr? :D), and able to be linked to here, and Listal will automatically resize it when it's shown.

I listen to some obscure emo and indie bands and I always find artist info there which isn't listed on Amazon.
