Well, that is very good news. It is my exactly what I want to do aswell, sort my
music.

What I cannot figure out is the following - and may be this is where I
understand PB not at all:

I will create a brain music with the top level thougths 'piece', 'composer',
'genre', 'location'. With time proceeding I will have hundreds of children to
'composer' (thounsend of 'actors') - so my screen will be full with unreadable
text...

And how do I do mass-editing? How can I create a jump for 20 'compose' to the
'genre: blues'?

I would sort of enter the data in a personal database - maybe even a spreadsheet
- it is a very simple db-model after all - and hopefully get them somehow into
PersonalBrain. If I have to drag&draw all the relations for each movie/piece,
I'll be dead and gone before I'll finish...

Also, I am considering the possibility, that this is not the way to use PB?

Thanks very much :D

What's the problem? I have just such a database,which indexes my DVD and
music collection.
Do you mean you already have standard database that you want to import,
or would you start from scratch?
