They require OAuth authentication now to access the album art. This is not a problem, but they also imposed a limitation of 1000 requests per day per application (i.e., Mp3tag) - which is not enough for all Mp3tag users using the discogs tag source.

Adding the suggested workaround to the official distribution would violate their TOS so that is not an option either.

Kind regards  
Florian
