“We made the book! We made the book!” These were the
words that greeted
the staff of ProMusicFind.Com on a recent morning as company
president Fred
Lorber waved a copy of The Guinness Book of World Records 2000:
Millennium
Edition. On page 164 in the Technology section, the entry reads:

musical
instruments and audio and electronic music equipment, as well as
new, used
and rare records, CDs, videos, music, and books, has more than
1 million items on its database.
“We’ve enjoyed a lot of media attention lately, both local and
national,”
said Lorber. “But this is unbelievable! I guess we’ll have to
top our own
record next year if we want to stay in the book.”
At the writing of the Guinness Book of World Records, ProMusicFind.Com
had 1.8 million music related
items listed
by more than 100 music dealers around the world. (Now
