[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 778090] Re: Banshee is unable to retrieve CDs information from MusicBrainz

[Gabe Gorelick]

This has been fixed upstream in their master branch, but I think this is
a major enough usability bug that it should be backported into natty.
Otherwise, users of the new default media player in Ubuntu will have to
manually input album information, or use work arounds like the Last.fm
fingerprint plugin (which is buggy itself).

Title:
  Banshee is unable to retrieve CDs information from MusicBrainz

Status in Banshee Music Player:
  Fix Released
Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application:
  New
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: banshee

  the MusicBrainz querying policy has changed. now each request MUST
  provide a user-agent, and Banshee doesn't do this, so any requests are
  not honored.

  Conclusion: we are unable to retreive CDs informations.
