btmac Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Not so much a question as a complaint. I am ripping CDs of vintage classical recordings, and find time after time that neither FreeDB nor MusicBrainz has many of them in their database. Admittedly many of these are esoteric, but by no means rare, CDs. The kicker is that I can pop these into my WinAmp (free version) and Gracenote finds practically all of them. So, the question is obvious: If WinAmp can include Gracenote, why on earth can't NCH? If anyone knows a work-around, I'd be pleased if they would share it. btmac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nchaj Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Gracenote is probably the best database available but it has license costs associated with it, which is why we don't use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodhudson Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Gracenote is probably the best database available but it has license costs associated with it, which is why we don't use it I can understand that reasoning for your 'Free' version, but not for the 'Paid For' version. If other companies who are charging nothing for their software can use Gracenote, why can't you, who ARE charging ? Especially when you admit that it's the best Database.

Wildman Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 It has become obvious that NCH does not respond to the topics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
