DISCDEX

Scan a disc's barcode and DISCDEX fills in the rest: the title, the label, the format, and what it's actually worth, priced from real eBay sold listings rather than list prices nobody pays. Built for people who still love owning the disc: Blu-ray, 4K UHD and DVD. ADD YOUR COLLECTION FAST • Scan to add: point your camera at the barcode and the disc is named and priced in seconds. • Import from Blu-ray.com: export your collection as a CSV and it drops straight in. • Or add titles by hand, and keep as many collections as you like: Owned, Wishlist, For Sale. KNOW WHAT IT'S WORTH • Real sold prices: values come from completed eBay sales, new and used. • Price history: every time you price a title, DISCDEX saves a snapshot, so you can see values move over time. • Steelbooks priced as steelbooks, with their own filter and sort. • A running total for each collection and your whole shelf. MADE BY COLLECTORS, FOR COLLECTORS • Shared cover art: covers are photographed by collectors and shared by barcode. If a disc has no cover yet, snap one and it's there for everyone who owns it. • A shared disc library: discs someone else has already scanned are named for you instantly. • Collection stats: your shelf by format, label and value, with an image you can share. • Ten themes, from DVD-menu blue to giallo neon. FREE TO START The free plan includes unlimited titles and collections, plus 25 price lookups a month. A disc someone priced recently is free. Pro adds far more lookups and one-tap Refresh All for your whole collection. Your collection is private to your account. No ads, no tracking, no selling your data.
