I'm writing an application that will allow users to create lists of
collections. For instance, they'll be able to create a list of their
favorite colors and most hated colors. They'll list their favorite
games and most hated games, etc.

What I want are more lists of things to put in collections. Peferably,
the lists should be in xml or flat text or csv or some other computer
readable format. The information should be freely available so that it
would be perfectly legal for me to just use it without paying anyone.
(although a small one time fee would be acceptable if it's a very
complete list)

I'd consider a few lists to be worth the $20. Let me know what's out
there and I'll let you know how much more I'll pay to get those lists.

A good list will contain additional information (links to pictures,
prices, dates for each object), but just a raw list is acceptable for
many things.

Examples of lists would be:
  - a list of a large number of colors
  - a list of all known Pac-Man memorabilia
  - a list of all known Smurf memorabilia
  - a list of cities of entire world

Lists I already have:
  - a list of games
  - a list of dvds
  - a list of countries
  - a list of cities in the US
  - a list of large number names

Clarification of Question by mxnmatch-ga on 30 Dec 2004 21:35 PST
I've got a list of 143 colors, so no need to find a list of colors now.

BTW, the format just has to be regular. If I can use a regular
expression to convert the data into a usable format then that's fine
for lists of data that aren't likely to change much (like a list of
colors).
