The cddb_query is just an example application, which is used to show how 
to use libcddb library.

Most of the distributions like Ubuntu, Gentoo, Fedora, etc... puts 
cddb_query in the /usr/bin.

I am against that:
  - cddb_query is not program itself it is just an example CLI utility 
(i the source tree: libcddb-1.3.0/examples/cddb_query)
  - cddb_query (LGPL) can use libcdio (GPL), but in our case it is build 
without libcdio support, since this would be violation of GPL licdnse.

We do have /usr/demo directory for such utilities.
