Proprietary
So, as has been mentioned, I’m working between Ubuntu and Windows. Ubuntu kicks ass but I’m stuck with Windows, as well, for a litany of reasons. Proprietary software is one of em.
I’m working on some music uploads and I decided it’s time to eliminate the issue of having ‘unknown artist’ pop up on a pressed up CD. It’s just not cool. Research led me smack into the fact that I can’t upload the music information unless I’m using Windows. The new owners of the CDDB won’t allow projects like MusicBrainz or freeDB access to their database. What a waste! Shame to think that CDDB started out free with people being able to send emails straight to the guy who actually started it!
Bad form, Gracenote, bad form.
