I want to switch to it, because I can have access to all player data from one single file that contains a table (database). Plus you can later link that database to a website, if you want to implement a user control panel, for instance.

MySQL is very easy to work with. I take back what I said in a thread before this one and say MySQL is much simpler than Y_INI or dini. It took me about 2-3 hours to figure out the basics of MySQL and once you're past that it's no challenge anymore.

MySQL generally allows for more complicated and flexible queries: i.e. looking up info from an offline player, changing their info, etc and also allows you to pull data from the external database which you can for example use to make a scoreboard on a website, an UCP, etc.

If you want to follow a tutorial, give these a try:

Out of my experience, MySQL is way easier than INI once you get how it works.

to get the basics of MySQL it will be easy job, But once you will go to complicated stuff, You may get a lot of troubles, Ofcourse MySQL is easy, But easy for the people who are very familiar with it.
