[quote hal]Please explain how my cd of Allman bros - Live at Ludows Garage (NOT a bootleg) has a disc that contains ONE 44:00 track on it.
Because there are multiple discs with one 44:00 track.
The only information CDDB gets from its client applications is that there are x number of tracks @ xx:xx on the disc, so it searches its database for discs that match that criteria. There can be multitple discs that meet those criteria, so it returns all possible matches.
To simplify the explanation, I'll use an analogy:
"Go to section 'C' of lot 'D' and find bring me the red Taurus."
If there are several red Tauri (for the sake of argument, they have no plates or VINs), then you'll have to use the key I've given you to find the right one.
