It's certainly worth a try, but don't you think finding an unguessable username is more of an entry barrier than the usual username/password combo?

You are right, it links to what looks like 2009 re-releases for those 3 albums, but it still doesn't have their 2009 actual release...

That's ok, keep up the good work, will be even better when you integrate last.fm!

An image upload site I know of used the same approach to 'login' and I quite liked it - I suppose the ideal configuration would be to give the user a choice. I had to nail down on feature creep at some point or I was never going to ship anything.

I'll look into the missing album though, edge cases like that are handy to know about for data quality.
