A little more effort, but this should work:

- Click "save" anyway, in order to:
- Determine the cddbid of your CD: "ls -lrt ~/.cddb/ | tail -1"
   - a good idea: verify that this is the right file

> - I do a manual lookup at freedb.org

- Save the cddb file linked from the cddbid into the file you identified 
above.

- click grip's "Scan Disk Contents" button (the one towards the lower left 
with a circle with a dot in it).
