Add cddb/gnudb support? #36

Open jgbrwn opened 1 year ago

jgbrwn commented 1 year ago

Any chance to add cddb/gnudb support for tagging?

There are many Classical albums that do not get identified with Musicbrainz, whereas there are matches from gnudb.

Thanks for any consideration!

I thought CDDB was long dead? It's one of the reasons I found cyanrip - couldn't get ripit to properly support musicbrainz. I have to say - although this is of course not relevant in se - that I'm much happier with MB than I ever was with CDDB. There are so many variants for some albums that it literally never got the right one on CDDB. I suppose that may be different with classicals.

CDDB support is useful for other reasons as well, for example interoperation with Gracenote proxies.

There still is https://gnudb.org/index.php , which works quite well.
