Search the forum For CDDB and you will find numerious explanations/ workarounds regarding CDDB and all it be much clear then.

BTW CDDB is Comercial Site and something needs to be paid to use its Database, also no other search engine can be used in conjuction to CDDB.
All this info can be found on Gracenote Site.

CDDB instead of FreeDB

Post by autobot.transformer »

if so, how come that all these SW packages are powered by Gracenote CDDB

http://www.gracenote.com/partners/softw ... n&type=all

the list includes WINAMP and many other shareware products ..... so I suggest the same can be done with MM (at least the GOLD version) maybe via a plugin..

As pointed early Most of that product (if not all)do not support both FreeDB and CDDB. By that I mean getting info and sending info to both of them.
As if they do support that you will be able to get info from CDDB and Posst it on FreeDB :)
This is the main issue about that.
