I agree. Don't they (cddb) know that they are expected to provide 24/7 service on Sun/HP Servers running Oracle or other expensive database with a T3 connection for free? Doesn't Steve Sherf (founder of CDDB) know that he should be working a full time job just to support CDDB? These guys are evil.....not! Thanks Steve for a great service. Maybe when these guys graduate from grade school/high school/college and have a family they will understand that people need to eat.
Of course if they paid you for your work, they would have to charge you for the queries you have made to pay others who have submitted data.
Nothings free. Servers cost money, bandwidth cost money, people need to eat. Cddb was Steve Sherf's (Founder of CDDB) hobby originally. Until it became his job, he had a difficult time supporting it. Now he can work at it full time and provide excellent service. I don't understand what the problem is.
