Do you think it'd make sense to mark the remaining classes deprecated? If the long term goal is to drop the lib entirely and have people use musicbrainz directly I figure we should communicate that.</p></div>
</blockquote>
<p>I agree and disagree :)</p>
<p>I think libkcddb needs to die, since it's basically built around the cddb service which is shutting down, i mean the musicbrainz support was optional until this change.</p>
<p>Otherwise I'm not sure if suggesting people to use libmusicbrainz directly is the best idea and maybe we need something intermediate? I mean if you look at MusicBrainzLookup::calculateDiscId that's something i wouldn't want everyone to have to implement themselves</p></div>
</blockquote>
<p>Fair point. Writing an intermediate library is extra work that I fear will not happen unless there's reason to, so my thinking was having kcddb deprecated so it annoys one of the developers that use it into making libqmusicbrainz as a replacement ;). Scratching their own itch, as it were.</p></div>

<p>So no gnudb.org?</p>
<p>Also, why would a central cache an alien concept when we have the same for thumbnails?</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R348 KCDDB Library</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>BRANCH</strong><div><div>master</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D27973">https://phabricator.kde.org/D27973</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>aacid, sitter<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>ltoscano, wbauer, pino, sitter, heikobecker, rstephenson, kde-doc-english, gennad, fbampaloukas, skadinna<br /></div>
