For a few years now, I've been using Data Crow to keep track of my physical media collection, most especially for my regularly growing collection of music CDs.

It's been quite instrummental... However, I've found that when looking up releases I've already added to my Discogs account's collection, I have to add then to my Data Crow library by looking up based on UPC, (which doesn't always show up with results), or by title wherein I still have to sift through results by opening their link one at a time. This honestly makes for a very slow and discouragingly monotinous experience that could be made dramatically faster, especially in the context of collections spanning over a thousand CDs.

As such, I want to request the option to look up Discogs releases based on the release code of a given submission, as this will take so much guess work out of the process of adding new items to my Data Crow database from Discogs. Better still, I'd like to request the ability to look up submissions based on their URL, (of which containes the number from the release code by itself), so that it's a simple matter of copy-pasting the URLs from the collection list in my Discogs account.

Thanks for helping me and many others keep organised through your development efforts. 🙂
