@gerowen It would be lovely to give #gnudb some support -a

#GNUDB seems to be a more complete archive of music CDs. I'm ripping a whole book of old #music CDs to FLAC and I've been using Asunder because it uses the gnudb music library. Just out of curiosity I tried a few of them in Rhythmbox and Sound Juicer, both of which seem to use #MusicBrainz. Not only did they not fill in the "genre" of any of the discs, but there have been a couple so far that were listed in gnudb but not MusicBrainz. I may kick gnudb a donation,

TIL that freedb hasn't existed since 2020. But gnudb does!

And it has the first disc! Marked up properly, unlike Gracenote, who lost all of the accented characters ...

I'm still mad about the CDDB/Gracenote thing which happened almost 24 years ago ...

Found out about #easytag for editing cd tags; even easier than #Picard! And it can be set up with #gnudb Now to figure out if I can get #emms to use it instead of random python scripts... https://gnudb.org/howto.php
