Hi,
It depends on what level of detail you want, the
Discogs entries sometimes contain everything from the liners, but obviously it's going to be a bit hit and miss. You could scan the sleeves and if you want them to be machine searchable, use an
OCR application, otherwise add the scans as album artwork? Dates are already covered and the simple credits can be put into the composers, etc. fields. You could put who played what into the comments field or load the info from a text file into a custom panel.
