[Abcde-users] Failback for musicbrainz failure?

[Sam Hawkens]

You can specifiy several cddb methods as a comma separated list.

# CDDB options
# Choose whether you want to use "cddb" and/or "musicbrainz". Default
# is "musicbrainz", but both can be specified in a comma delimited list
# to be tried sequentially in the event of failure of the first
# search.
#CDDBMETHOD=musicbrainz
