Title:
My Music scope attempts todownload artist biography, but biography is
always empty.
Status in Canonical System Image:
Fix Committed
Status in unity-scope-mediascanner package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
The My Music scope tries to download artist biography from
dash.ubuntu.com when displaying the artist overview page. It in turn
tries to retrieve the biography via the 7digital API.
However, the 7digital API always returns an empty string because they
don't have a license to provide the biographies shown in their own web
store:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/7digital-api/mtMWAOAiIB0/s6933tEZ0BYJ
While dash.ubuntu.com could be modified to retrieve biographies
elsewhere, at the moment the scope is just wasting time and bandwidth
by asking for the data. So in the short term we are better off
disabling the biography download code.
