[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 813836] [NEW] retrieving CD information from MusicBrainz fails most of the time

[Doug McMahon]

Public bug reported:

On slightly extended test from previously the current banshee failed to
return any cd info on 15 out of 20 randomly chosen cd's., so at best a
25% success rate

Patching the current source with the attached patch saw a 100% success rate on those same 20 cd's
Retrieving the proper album art, while not perfect, was acceptable with about a 75% success rate which is understandable due to the nature of the patch
In lieu of a better solution some consideration should be given using this patch in the meantime or using a banshee source where the commit was applied
