I read this already. The application just suddenly stopped working with musicbrainz and i would like it to start working again. It's a great app and i like using it.

If they really have fixed it: [http://blog.musicbrainz.org/?p=1945](http://blog.musicbrainz.org/?p=1945) maybe you are lucky and theyr (old!) webservice v1 works again.

I meant to comment on this status because I went back to the link provided above and found there is a new v2 link for download. I didn't get what people were talking about at first on the post. Enterestingly enough I had re-rewritten v1 code to v2 myself the day before and got it working. When I sat down and read the post I realized Dano has already updated it. 🙂
Thanks for all help.
