It seems like an eternity since I've used CSV. I don't remember when I started using it but I must have still had dialup. Downloading a single picture from Usenet or Irc took ages. You had the CSVs from scanners, that scanned paper magazines and CSVs for collections from paid porn sites. Every month people with a subscription to sites like Suze Randall, Digital Dreamgirls, etc downloaded the pictures, put them in a proper folder structure, made a CSV and posted them to usenet. These CSVs allowed you to automatically organize the downloaded pictures in same folder structure and verify the integrity of the downloaded files.

The!Checker was by far the easiest tool to use, Hunter the most powerful. What was also useful was making a CSV for missing pictures in your collection. Someone with a complete set would simply use your CSV to quickly copy the missing pictures from his set and post them to usenet.

There used to be sites that had large collections of CSV files. They are probably all gone now. I must still have many on a harddisc somewhere
