Those musicbrainz.nfo files weren't originally meant to be manually added, so I suspect this has never come up. My bet is it has something to do with the default line ending python uses versus what your specific platform does. Since python was writing the file and then reading it, it never mattered, but with you creating them manually it probably does. Anyway, your solution probably makes the most sense. I'll add that to the AS code (since there's no harm in stripping something that isn't there is most cases). It'll get pushed out whenever I do the next update (which might not be for awhile).

Makes sense. And thanks for agreeing to update. Really appreciate it.

I might look to add a file based look up of artist name -> MBID which I can maintain in a single file somewhere to save having to rely upon theaudiodb for determining MBID from artist name when using streaming.

Cheers,
Mark
