freedb is unavailable because freedb closed down over a year ago. There seems to be an attempt to keep it alive at gnudb but it I am not sure how well that is working out or if any music players are using it (none that I use seem to be). As lowlander suggests, musicbrainz is an alternative but it is missing a fair number of albums. Discogs is more comprehensive than musicbrainz. Both, however, are inconsistent from album to album on the amount of detail available.
