Lan and others, I found the cddb database and server. My memory isn't as good as it used to be -- it is not PHP on a web server. cddbd is written in C and is apparently a standalone server. You can get it from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=9704
The database is over 7GB and is stored on disk as one file per database record, organized in 11 directories by genre. The record files are named with the hash created by examining a CD. This version of the database, dated 6-30-2006, contains about 2 million records (files). When tarred and bzip2'd it's 477MB. I've put it here for anyone who wants it: http://www.keckec.com/cddb.tar.bz2 I never tried to get the server to run.
