I've just tried using music cds in Banshee and Rhythmbox on Ubuntu 11.10
and both fail to recognise my music cd. What is going on here? In the
21st century the ability to identify and rip a cd is generally
considered to be basic functionality. I am somewhat disappointed that
Ubuntu distributes such rubbish software.

There's clearly been too much time wasted on a Unity interface that
fewer people want and not enough resources allocated to fixing basic
faults.

Why is the Importance/Assigned categories still set to
Medium/Unnasigned? Does Canonical want Ubuntu to appeal to music lovers
or not?

PS I don't want anyone to be upset by my rant, I just feel that it has
to be said.

Title:
  Rhythmbox [0.12.8] & [0.12.5] Not Fetching Album Information From
  MusicBrainz

Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application:
  Confirmed
Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  May 24th, 2011

  On my two Ubuntu machines Rhythmbox is not fetching album tagging
  information from MusicBrainz even though the information exists on the
  MusicBrainz database. I checked with the picard program I had on the
  machines. The CD lookup revealed the tagging information in picard.

  Here are my machines:

  Pentium D
  Memory 2.9 GiB

  9.10 [kernel 2.6.31-23-generic]
  Rythmbox 0.12.5

  libdiscid0   [Version: 0.1.0-1]
  libmusicbrainz4c2a   [Version: 2.1.5-2ubuntu1]
  picard   [Version: 0.11-2ubuntu3]

  ||||||

  Core 2 Duo
  Memory: 2.0 GiB

  10.04 [kernel 2.6.32-31-generic]
  Rythmbox 0.12.8

  libdiscid0   [Version: 0.2.2-1]
  picard   [Version: 0.12.1-0ubuntu1]
  libmusicbrainz4c2a   [Version: 2.1.5-4]

  I will check in over the next few weeks to provide more information if
  necessary.

  Hope this helps,
  Thanks,
  Mike
