GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 172539
Use "unknown album", "unknown album 2", etc instead of overwriting

Distribution/Version: Ubuntu Hoary preview Steps to reproduce: 1. Rip a CD for which Sound-Juicer does not have any metadata. 2. Rip a different CD for which Sound-Juicer does not have any metadata. What should happen: * The CDs are ripped into separate folders. What actually happens: * The second CD overwrites the first (unless the first has more tracks, in which case you end up with a fun mixture). Like the default folder names created by Nautilus, the "unknown album", "unknown album 2", "unknown album 3" etc names should be all lower case, to visually distinguish them from human-meaningful names that are usually Capitalized.
I have a script that automates CD ripping using ABCDE (A better CD encoder), and often it will leave "Unknown Artist - Unknown Album" I have the script change it to "Unknown Artist - Disc ID <discid>". It allows it to have Unknown Discs in the collection without making duplicates with only a 2^64th chance of collision. ...but really, one should be entering the information manually, then submitting it to freedb, and making the world a slightly better place.
