You Know Its TIme to Update When...

You know its time to update when you can't remember the last time Rhythmbox found the album information of the CDs you've inserted. Your Rhythmbox is too old; why are you running Ubuntu 9.10 in 2011?

-- UPDATE --

Damnit, latest Ubuntu has the same damn problem (Rhythmbox 0.13.3), 404 on the request. Example after 0.12.5 example.

-- END UPDATE --

Ye Olde Rhythmbox 0.12.5 is trying to use an old script on musicbrainz.org that doesn't exist anymore. The following is a capture of the failing request to obtain the album information.
