I had the same problem with grip.
I suppose you are using kscd (the kde cd player).
I think that (like nearly all cddb compatible cd players) it is setup to
query the track names from www.cddb.com, but they recently changed. You
now have to make the query to cddb.cddb.com.
Setup kscd (Sorry. I don't know how to do. I don't use kscd) and change
www.cddb.com to cddb.cddb.com.
That should do it.
