Sound Juicer has a menu item which was labelled CD->Submit in 2.12, and in 2.14 is labelled CD->Submit Track Names.

Both of these are incorrect. What the button *actually* does is open
the relevant page on the MusicBrainz server for that CD, so if it found a matching album you can edit the metadata if it is incorrect, and if it wasn't found you get an import page.

That seems quite time-consuming. How does iTunes get away with not opening a Web page for its "Submit CD Track Names" item?

The import could be submitting a new TOC (different releases often have different TOCs) for an existing CD, or importing from FreeDB, or entering the data from scratch. When this is done the user can re-read the CD in SJ and they'll get the new data.

It's quite tricky to cover all of that in a single menu entry. Any
suggestions? CD->Edit Track Data is the best I can come up with.

"Contribute Track Names..."?
