Nice. Tackling a personal pain is usually a good way to start. :)
@mhaddl - Did you interview other people or measure the demand for this app in some other way before building it?
@mhaddl Any plans to keep track of release dates? I've always wanted to keep track of when a great movie whose trailer excited me comes out and some movies I don't want to see in theaters but want to know when I can stream it on netflix, hbogo, etc.

Hi, my name is Martin, I'm a CS student from Germany and developer behind Mentio.
Feel free to ask any question, there are also 3 promo codes left if somebody is interested in.

Today there a hundreds of great movies, LPs and awesome Apps but (especially as a student) you do not always have the money to buy it right away.
I needed a way to collect all those wishes so I can buy them when my wallet is ready, or someone got me an iTunes gift card. ;)
This is the reason why I developed Mentio. Maybe others have a similar problem and this App helps them a bit.
Report
@rrhoover - I talked with classmates, my girlfriend and my sister. They all seemed to like the idea and this was enough for me to really build the App, maybe because I wanted it so badly for myself.
I did not do a market analysis so I have no idea if there really is demand for such an niche app but the first feedback I got from customers sounds great.
Report
@Evanish I plan to keep track of release dates for upcoming releases, but only for the iTunes Store. I want to keep Mentio focused on iTunes as source of media.
Noticed today that you can add anything not listed in the iTunes store. That makes this a big win for me, simply to keep track of TV shows, books, and apps I want to try out in the future.
