I think if there was a .crs database (which doesn't sound like a bad idea actually) the courses should be divided into 3 categories, all of which require a course description (like a normal sim) and a songlist (so you can see which songs you are required to get):

1) Official Song Courses - These would be courses that use official songs in them. All the listings would have song name, artist (possibly), and DDR/ITG mix it came from.
2) BMS Sim Course - Courses that use sims present in the simfile database. Each sim in the listing would need to be linked to a sim in the database.
3) Other - Courses that are a combination of the above as well as other sources (such as other hosts and such).

I'm interested in seeing something like this put in place.
This doesn't really come close to covering what I'm talking about. A course db would probably be mostly ignored and a waste of space. Plus, any good course download includes all the songs and what-not needed within the original download rather than having to hunt down all the relative files (which people would not do).
