It would be possible to have some description of sql backend to store the data, postgres or mysql, or whatever floats your boat, then the front end can be almost anything you want, web based, odbc based. of course, having to reinput all the data into a new db will likely be a pain in the ass to say the least
Of course, then you'll never hear any new music will you, unless you happen to download a track just because you like the name of the song, or it was reccommended. I don't know about anyone else but often times i'll be in the vicinity of the radio, hear a song that i instantly like, and when i get home i go searching for my own copy of it, and other stuff by the same artist. There _are_ benefits to having music pushed at you, maybe not the commercials, but definately the music. of course, you also get played a lot of crap, but oh well.
