Sup.

Since I've installed MP3Tag I've never had a problem with it. That is, until a few days ago!

MusicBrainz used to find about 95% of the albums I searched for, now it's hardly finding any. It's even refusing to find albums that I have previously tagged with MusicBrainz.

I've done some searching and downloaded multiple sources and stuck them in;

C:\Program Files (x86)\Mp3tag\data\sources

Some of them include the "Search by Artist and Disc Number" ones. I put them in the folder, relaunch MP3Tag and then search again using MusicBrainz but I can still only search by Album.

What am I doing wrong?

Here is what my sources folder currently looks like.

Is that right? This is also what I get when I click "Search using MusicBrainz"

[Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) source works fine at the moment but I prefer to use MusicBrainz.

Thanks.
