OBI Scanner: CD Pressing ID
Japanese CD & edition finder
$4.99
Know exactly which pressing you own. And whether it’s worth keeping.
OBI Scanner helps music collectors and audiophiles identify, catalog, and evaluate physical music releases with far more precision than a standard barcode app.
Scan barcodes, OBI strips, and catalog numbers to identify releases from Japan, the US, and Europe, then save them to your collection, check market value, and compare them against other known editions.
From rare Japanese mini LPs and SHM-CDs to SACDs, audiophile reissues, and hard-to-track variants, OBI Scanner is designed for collectors who care about the details.
