Erm, I'm not sure that it does directly ...
I figure I must have some old version as it still uses gtk+-1.2 ;p
but here is the greatest thing of all:
freedb.org (and probably cddb too) do *not* use the MCM number because
there are duplicates. instead, it does the absolutely *brilliant* thing
of creating an ID for the CD based on the length and number of tracks,
which is almost guaranteed to be unique.
I guessed that due to the number of times it's got it wrong, amusingly.
