This component is very complex and has a lot of potential. It is also one of the more expensive components available for Joomla. As such, I would expect a certain level of support, but have been very disappointed. The paid members portion of the support forum is filled with unanswered problems/bugs and a lot of complaints. If you want to pay for custom services, I'm sure the level of support is better, but as a paid customer I think it is very poor.
I thought al long time before i decide what player i should use on my website. Then i came on this website and did play around a bit. Did ask some questions and got response within a few hours. For my goal this software was almost perfect what i needed. I did ask them for a modification adn they did within a few days and now i have the perfect solution for what i need!!! They are very very helpful, and no question is to much for them!! Thanks a lot!
We purchased this a year ago for a client who works in the music industry. The extension was exactly what they needed. When we went to check our update status the developer generously extended our time so we could get the newest version and bug fixes.
Also support is very fast and efficient if you do manage to have a problem you can expect a response very quickly
This developer does a wonderful job keeping their customers happy.

This one component all by itself has improved my website 200%. I can't say enough good things about this truly excellent product. The functionality, ease of configuration, and display options are outstanding. Support? Gosh working with Germi is nothing short of fabulous. I have artist on my site i.e., Melba Moore, Etta James, R. Kelly and many others - all have commented that the addition of MC has turned the website from good to a professional product unbeatable in use, functionality and excellent look n feel. I can reap nothing but praise on the developers and offer my thanks from the bottom of my heart for such a configurable, professional, easy to use product.
My search for the legendary music extension has finally ended :D
You know the old saying "You get what you pay for?"
Well although this is a commercial extension, it was the only extension that I found that suited my needs...and I didn't mind paying for it. If you're worried about support, don't be. Germi (the author) and the other folks over there are really friendly and quite prompt with their replies.
I appreciate all the hard word that is going into this extension and I would LOVE to see it stick around and only become better with time.
Thank you for a wonderful extension!

The entire Jam's Space On Demand feature would not have been possible without Music Collection. In our first two months we were able to organize and share over 1000 songs from 100+ artists. The analytics/stats component built in is very thorough and easily customized. The support is great, if you ever have a question Germi makes sure to take care of you. Thanks again Music Collection for helping us release such an exciting Reggae/Rock website!
Well, if you need to introduce a music catalogue or an artist roster, Music Collection is perfect for that. Very usefull and easy to manage. You'll find a complete Joomla component to show and play all your music. Also link to several online shops, like iTunes..
Germi is a great developer and he is always ready to help you. Also he listen your proposals and try to add them for next updates.
Finally I had to tell I like both interfaces, backend and frontend: clean and organized.

I've been using Music collection, and I'm loving it. I'd got some problems and bugs submitted to the support teams throu their forum and email. Surprisingly the helps were quick and good! They helped me to fix all bugs and made the component running for my site, and as they have promised, any bugs will be fixed as long as they find out.
If you are looking for a Music component for joomla, I'd highly recommend THIS ONE, simply the best, easy to use, great supports, friendly lay-out.
I and my users love it!
Keep up the good works, guys!

Music Collection is so great. I would highly recommend it. I´m using Music Collection to organize all the band database from my city here in Brazil.
Since I´m new at all this, I'm getting a lot of great support from the author, Germi. The responses are very quick and helpful. I have had ALL my answers replied very quickly, althought it´s so easy to configure the whole thing.
Really, if you have music, bands, and music collection in your website, don´t think twice, Music Collection is what you need.
Thanks to the developers for making our lives easier :)

This extension not only streams music on demand - it also streams video. It was easy to set up and gives us all the functionality we need.
To make it even better, Germi is extremely helpful if you want to customize the extension to fit perfectly with your needs.
We are using it to offer self-help audio/video's on a paid membership site. It works great!
Thanks for this excellent extension.

Last October I submitted a less than favourable review of the upgrade to this extension under my business identity and sad to say only one review is permitted per identity. However, in response to the vendor's comments and several significant developments in the meanwhile, I would like to declare unreservedly that my earlier dissatisfaction has been addressed and I now use the latest version of Music Collection which has proved to be the best in its field and worthy of the highest recommendation.
It is fair to say that some of the difficulties were related to Internet Explorer but anyone who uses Joomla and other web based applications will have had similar experiences. Nevertheless, Germi continues to work on the development of his extension and with major enhancements in the pipeline, it is a worthwhile investment for anyone who proposes to create a music website in the foreseeable future. The way I see it, this extension is way under priced and that can't last.
So, for anyone who read the earlier review and hesitated, be assured that it has passed my very critical appraisal and I unreservedly retract that earlier review.

This component is just amazing. A really good quality for a little price.
The options available are incredible. I needed a custom work and Germi made this fast and perfectly working. A really serious work from a serious team.
This is just excellent!
Waiting for the next upgrade with eagerness!
Thanks for all!

I have never felt compelled to write a review before - That has changed!
From every aspect I have been Amazed and Impressed. The depth and detail that is found in this Component is very refreshing. From the first time I looked at it I couldn't believe it had everything - I mean EVERYTHING - the true music enthusiast could hope or dream for. The included modules, flexibility & functionality. The total package.
If your looking for something to manage your music needs - This Is IT! It's worth it's price, and then some!
Way to go Music Collection!! Thanks.

Ive been looking for something like this for a long time, and this is just excellent. Music Collection 1.5 just oozes quality, and you can tell that the programmer is a real music fan as this is definitely a labor of love, which you can see too in the quality of support on the forum he gives. To top all of that you would think it would cost you a chunk of money, the price of this is so cheap by the side of the quality of what you are getting, that again says quality, a programmer that cares about his work and the support he gives.

This product is amazing. I at first thought that it was going to be too much for a simple band website with only one artist, but it proved me wrong... The support has been excellent, quick replies to simple and complex questions and even an offer to customize for free. Germi, the developer of Music Collection is top-notch!
NICE, NICE JOB!!!!
