Gracenote CDDB Connection Elusive
« on: August 16, 2003, 06:09:18 pm »

I've repeatedly had trouble getting track info when selecting CDDB.  Invariably there is some error message from Gracenote. The latest was "Quota Exceeded" Is there some trick to using CDDB with MJ?  :-/

(BTW The info, when available, comes over just fine from YADB)

I believe that J River software is no longer licensed to access data from CDDB. Basically, CDDB raised their fees by a huge amount and J River chose to create their own database (YADB) rather than pay the CDDB licensing. There have been quite a few discussions about this. A quick search should turn up some of the threads if you want more info.
