What about a device that would read you old unlabeled vcr (got hundreds of them) just like a vcr-rader,that would take screenshots at regular intervals,compare them with a online database, save the title,summary of the film on a personnal webpage as well as some vcr id and print a label for us to put on the vcr (or print it automatically while the vcr is being scanned) with the various films,shows and emissions it contains (and why not a custom jacket to print with your computer)

The same thing could be done for books.Every single ,cd or product you have at home is scanned thanks to a code scanner,a webcan or a scanner.Google would recognize what title it is and add it to your database(i've seen a company doing the second part of my post,Google should buy it asap)
