What are some sites like meetup.org?

What are other sites that have similar business model like IMDb?

• IMDb's business model is collecting movie credits/info. Are there other sites out there like this that similarly collect credits/info for books, music etc, or runs on an info-collecting model like IMDb? Thanks,

• Answer:

  For music nerds, here are a few sites: http://www.metal-archives.com/ - More for metalheads http://www.progarchives.com/ - More for progressive rock/rock fans http://www.discogs.com - This site catalogs releases of various formats (vinyl, CD, tape, MP3, etc) for basically any artist. Geared towards completionists and audiophiles. Here's also a few sites with similar styles: http://pcpartpicker.com - Has information on basically every part you could buy for a custom built computer. You can also save your build and share/compare with others. http://www.lovelinetapes.com/ - An archive for Loveline http://isthereanydeal.com - A site for those who like to buy PC games. You can get alerts for when games go on sale at a certain price. It covers many distribution sites, too. http://slickdeals.net/ - Collects deals from all over the internet and aggregates them into one, easy to use site. http://www.metacritic.com/ - Aggregates reviews for movies, games, music and TV shows http://www.rottentomatoes.com/ - Aggregates reviews for movies, DVD releases and TV shows These above sites might be a little different than what you're looking for but I figured they were close enough along the same lines. Hope this helps!
