The website, forum, plug-in catalog and registration information will be temporarily unavailable starting Sunday, May 11 9:00pm EDT

We aren't making this move to try and take anything away but the old MB 2 database is being shut down and we want to remove this

This is a big one, and it's all about giving you finely grained control of what your server is doing. Let's get to the changes:
First, the warning:
This release will re-scan your library. Please be patient. Also review your user library sharing because you may need to reconfigure some of them.
Finely grained control over metadata settings. Choose where your metadata comes from, prioritize internet fetchers, and choose what formats your metadata gets saved to.
Local metadata is king.
