**Since freedb has a new owner the web search is not available anymore.** 

It might come back but the date is unknown. (It needs to be rewritten).

  
As replacement you can try the [freedb2 search](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/3863/1) or one of the many other [sources](https://community.mp3tag.de/c/web-sources-scripts).

(outdated, Attachement removed)

If you haven't already noticed, the freedb web search isn't working anymore.

Here is an update:

 

Download the attachement and extract the new freedb.src to **%appdata%\Mp3tag\data** and overwrite the old one.  
Please read [here](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/2748/1) if you have troubles finding the correct folder.

 

Note: You can also install the latest [Development Build](http://developer.mp3tag.de) to get the update.
