No apologies needed. IMHO this is one of those incremental improvements until it's better things. Any notion if it's possible to get the headless MusicIP to reload its cache -without- the web interface? There seem to be two issues being solved here: - when using look for new and changed music

Thanks for taking the time to both figure that one out - ant to post it! I just got a copy of genpuid. Getting a copy is a bit more involved than just downloading something; go 'here' (http://musicbrainz.org/doc/genpuid) for a step-by-step at MusicBrainz. -- bobkoure
