There is a web interface to the catalog and a group of volunteers 
working on the catalog but updating subject data is not one of their top 
priorities right now. There are a lot of errors to fix first and many 
other informations are missing too. But, in due time, subject data will 
be fixed.

I propose to use what data is in the catalog now. "Language", "Category" 
, "File Type" and "Top 100" are very reliable. So we could build a 
"Foreign Languages", "Human Read Audio Books", "Illustrated Works" or 
"Best Of" CD.

Of course, having many different CD types, we will have to ship more 
CDs. So better make sure we have the resources.
