Wow, this is what I call lightning fast reply! :-) Thanks!
I do have MusicBrainz tags in most of my songs. There are some albums
which are not in the MusicBrainz database so they don't have its IDs,
but 95% should. Here's how my XMLs look like from the Windows trackstat

However, when I try to restore the backup on the Linux installation, it
doesn't work. It looks like it finishes the import, it doesn't spit out
any error, but the info is just not there.
Am I doing something wrong?
