Hello LPsHeads

Hi My name is Marcello, and I'm an LPs and CDs collector. I'm the king of guys who sometimes buy music on digital download to place it in an MD because I love to have a physical copy of my music.

The app lets you map your actual room and shelves so you know exactly where a specific record is...
