what happened to discogs.com?

[andrei_c]

What I could find out is that OrageCD does download info on Cds whch have no artwork at Discogs.com, but doesn't get info where images are contained.

What is your system version?

There's something fishy is going on... OrangeCD cannot reach image download URL. It times out, according to the log.

I have an idea what could cause it and can try to fix it. Will you be able to run private build to test it?

Will you be able to run private build to test it?

Andrei, I installed and tried OCD 6.4.9. - the problem stays...

For what it is worth, I had no problems using OCD to download info and artwork from Discogs using 6.4.9. (Windows XP, Avast! anti-virus active). I didn't do anything special. Although it is not something I would normally download I was even successful with the two albums you seem to have had trouble with.

Well... Finally I got it working. Though I had to reinstall the whole OS.

But the interesting point is that I didn't log in to the Discogs.com, I just didn't get the window which asked me to log in... So Discogs.com works fine without logging in? And what happens if I log in somehow sometime?
