Apparently the New Zealand police are looking into it, and various parties are crying "hacking" and looking for someone to prosecute. Is it a crime to volunteer incorrect data to cddb.com?
Me too.
Unfortunately, the contract CDDB requires of software manufacturers requires them to hardwire it to CDDB, and make it difficult to change; this is the case with iTunes. When I ripped CDs on my PowerBook at work, I made sure not to submit anything to the greedy scumbags.
These days, I rip CDs under Linux with grip, which of course uses freedb, so the point is moot.
Funny.
I dunno. I prefer to use freedb.org instead; it may well be just as fallible, but at least there's not the the propriety feel about it.
