package: audio/rip trouble.[SEC = UNCLASSIFIED]

["Paul (NCC/CS.)" <pts%bom.gov.au@localhost>]

hi guys, can you Help me Please,

i use audio/rip to transfer my purchased cd's to mp3player.

as of yesterday, ( haven't used it for a few months ) it can't
look up the CDDB ( CD database of track titles etc ). Looks
like the site is down , but thing is it's still down today!
Maybe something else is wrong?

does anyone have any clues ? or should i point the perl 
script (rip) to a different site from freedb.freedb.org ?


here's the o/p:

Ripping these track(s):  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Connecting to CDDB...cannot connect to cddb db: freedb.freedb.org:80
[Connection timed out]
at /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/CDDB_get.pm line 367.



thankyou, hopeingly,
Paul.
