Also, having Googled around, there seems to be a scarcity of software
for storing the data from classical music on CD's. Any help there please?

Depends on the goal of the database is, if you just want a quick way to
access the details I'd go with ripping the CDs into a good music player.
Sound Juicer will look the data up on each track from MusicBrainz, so
very little to do but put a CD in the drive and click each time.

If you need it to keep track of who you've lent them to, or some other
esoteric need, speak up.

No I don't lend them out. And I don't want to download them to the computer. I am looking for a database to store the details of the contents of each CD so that I can easily find, for example, which particular CD has track XYZ on it. Then I can quickly go to the cabinet holding the CD's and find the one I want quickly.

The idea of the bar code reader was to save a lot of typing!

Thanks
