Since 2003, MusicBrainz's core data (artists, recordings, releases, and so on) are in the public domain, and additional content, including moderation data (essentially every original content contributed by users and its elaborations), is placed under the Creative Commons CC-BY-NC-SA-2.0 license. The AcoustID search server then searches from the database of fingerprints by similarity and returns the AcoustID identifier along with MusicBrainz recording identifiers if known. Additional post-processing is then applied to compress this fingerprint while retaining patterns. Chromaprint works by analyzing the first two minutes of a track, detecting the strength in each of 12 pitch classes, storing these 8 times per second. While AcoustID and Chromaprint are not officially MusicBrainz projects, they are closely tied with each other and both are open source. The Chromaprint acoustic fingerprinting algorithm, the basis for AcoustID identification service, was started in February 2010 by a long-time MusicBrainz contributor Lukáš Lalinský.

Since the future of the free identification service was uncertain, a replacement for it was sought. Some time after the acquisition, the MusicDNS service began having intermittent problems. In October 2009 MusicIP was acquired by AmpliFIND. TRMs were phased out and replaced by MusicDNS in November 2008. This issue was resolved in May 2006 when MusicBrainz partnered with MusicIP (now AmpliFIND), replacing TRM with MusicDNS. However, by 2005 TRM was showing scalability issues as the number of tracks in the database had reached into the millions. This feature attracted many users and allowed the database to grow quickly. In 2000, MusicBrainz started using Relatable's patented TRM (a recursive acronym for TRM Recognizes Music) for acoustic fingerprint matching. A separate application, such as MusicBrainz Picard, must be used for this. Cover art is also provided for items on sale at and some other online resources, but CAA is now preferred because it gives the community more control and flexibility for managing the images.īesides collecting metadata about music, MusicBrainz also allows looking up recordings by their acoustic fingerprint. As with other contributions, the MusicBrainz community is in charge of maintaining and reviewing the data.

Internet Archive provides the bandwidth, storage and legal protection for hosting the images, while MusicBrainz stores metadata and provides public access through the web and via an API for third parties to use. MusicBrainz allows contributors to upload cover art images of releases to the database these images are hosted by Cover Art Archive (CAA), a joint project between Internet Archive and MusicBrainz started in 2012.

End-users can use software that communicates with MusicBrainz to add metadata tags to their digital media files, such as ALAC, FLAC, MP3, Ogg Vorbis or AAC. As of September 2020, MusicBrainz contained information on roughly 1.7 million artists, 2.6 million releases, and 23 million recordings. Recorded works can also store information about the release date and country, the CD ID, cover art, acoustic fingerprint, free-form annotation text and other metadata. These entries are maintained by volunteer editors who follow community written style guidelines. Recorded works entries capture at a minimum the album title, track titles, and the length of each track. MusicBrainz captures information about artists, their recorded works, and the relationships between them. MusicBrainz has expanded its goals to reach beyond a CD metadata (this is information about the performers, artists, songwriters, etc.) storehouse to become a structured online database for music. MusicBrainz was founded in response to the restrictions placed on the Compact Disc Database (CDDB), a database for software applications to look up audio CD information on the Internet. MusicBrainz is a project which aims to create a collaborative music database that is similar to the freedb project.
