I'll add the album.

But yes, as I say, I do write the listings, as they need to be colour coded and fit into my system that way. The trouble with copying them is you get all that extraneous info, like track lengths, who wrote it etc, which I don't use and would then have to cut out, so it's actually quicker for me to just write them in by hand.

Since I'm extremely meticulous when tagging my music and often have to copy track titles from discogs into a *.txt file, I know what you mean.
But it's mostly still much faster. Just select the tracklist from discogs and copy it into the text editor. Oftentimes the main page for an album doesn't even have the track numbers. To remove the track lengths, just double click on them to select them, press backspace to remove and press backspace once more to remove the blanks. Done.
In case of this japanesy album you'd be done in about 2 seconds.
Not trying to criticize your style, just a tip from one OCD sufferer to another.
