does this work?

When I looked into this a while back I thought that I learned that iTunes uses some sort of level two protocol that only gracenote can use, and that the freecddb did not support. Sean McBride's page gives details, but it looks like for iTunes you are out of luck. Any success you have is an illusion - you are probably still accessing the Gracenote serves via the CDDB2 protocol - which is what happened to me for a while after I tricked out my hosts files in 9 and tried to do so in X. http://www.cam.org/~cwatson/freedb/freedb.html
