[Apple iPod] getting track information

Thanks, Archie, for the ideas. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the track info on Gracenote to download. I thought it might be because sometimes there are bonus tracks on the CD I put into my iTunes library that aren't shown on Gracenote, but even when I highlight just ones that are listed there, they don't load.
This feels like a preferences issue, but my preferences are set to download the track info, so I'm still stuck.

I agree with you about the importance of typing in the information correctly. It IS an annoyance to have to correct the information. I wonder why the recording companies, labels, or distributors don't post the information themselves. Maybe they do, but I constantly find Hawaiian music that I get for a radio show I host is listed as "World" instead of "Hawaiian."

Does anyone else have any thoughts about why I can't retrieve track info? Sometimes it works, but mostly it doesn't. I used to have good luck with this, so it's odd that it's become a problem.

Thanks!

Russ
