RE: Barcode DataBase

[Stuart Poulton <stuart.poulton@xxxxxxx>]

Kevin,

I've already got the snapshot, it's about 50% of the available DB. I've
not looked but it's mainly US products and I've found only a few
matches
when looking for UK products.

There is also the issue of supermarket brands which won't appear in any
UPC DB.
