Of course you know that freeDB is a fork from CDDB - predating the whole
thing to well before mp3 was anything other than 3 random characters.
(as opposed to a big legal tangle ;)

I'm tentatively planning my personal database to be a superset of the
freeDB database - including my own discID which will also be a
backwards compatible superset of the poorly designed cddb discID.
(but maintaining some of the cddb discID's pro's - such as the ability
to do a first-round search for "near matches" based on the discID alone)

When I get something more than a few scratches on paper, I'll be sure to
let the list know. :)
