The creator of this software needs to drop the attitude and realize just because he provides software for free, it doesn't mean he should expect users to just accept crashes and lost data.
The program is easy to use, does a great job of managing your movie collection with useful features, however your database will just vanish virtually everyday you use the software.
Yes their are backups in place, but instead of relying backups, the creator should educate himself on the reasons as to why the software keeps losing the database, as if he does this, then i couldn't see any faults.
Overall this is a simple, yet highly useful piece of software, which is let down by technical issues, but if you are happy to put up with constant crashes then i would recommend it.
Price: Free

The software developer responded to this review on Sep 25, 2007:
Why is putting all my free time in developing an application and giving it away for free having an attitude?
Do you use the latest version (0.48)? I use EMDB every day and never enounter any crashes. Is there a specific scenario you use when the crashes occur?
(There are some issues in import / export csv files but those will be fixed in the next version.)
