This can be used for 3 things.
#1) You can easily format this information to have a hard copy of what is on your piano's hard drive.
#2) It can be placed into a simple database to provide the ability to search for songs offline.
#3) It can be enhanced to allow you to search realtime for songs on your piano (search the postgress DB directly, instead of an offline DB)
Working on polishing this in the meantime, as it's my first ever java app, it isn't pretty. :-)
