In this episode of Lorenzo's Music Podcast, I meet Robert Kaye, the founder of MusicBrainz and the MetaBrainz Foundation. Robert talks about creating MusicBrainz, a community-driven music database that emerged as a response to the privatization of the CDDB database. We explore the impact of open-source communities and the importance of collaboration in building it's music metadata infrastructure.Robert shares the challenges he faced, from navigating community dynamics to the evolution of MusicBrainz over the past 25 years. We discuss the creation of Picard, the tagging application for users' music collections, and how MusicBrainz is a resource for artists and music collectors alike.Robert also talks about his other projects, including ListenBrainz, which aims to enhance music discovery and recommendations for local collections.MusicBrainz website - https://musicbrainz.orgLorenzo's Music Website - https://www.lorenzosmusic.com
