* Description: The Internet CD Database Server
  The CD Database Server (cddbd) is a program designed to allow remote
  access of Compact Disc database entries (artist, album title, track
  list, etc.).
  .
  Many CD-playing applications support the CDDB protocol (cddbp) for
  looking up information about a CD from this service, and for
  submitting new or updated entries to the database.  The public FreeDB
  server <http://www.freedb.org/> is a well-known server using this
  software.
  .
  This package allows for a public or private CDDB server, either
  independent or synchronised with others across the network.
