      Now that Picard can submit disc IDs, streamlining the process would greatly speed things up. Currently, the process for submitting a Disc ID in Picard seems to be:

      • Click on Lookup CD, Lookup from Disc ID
      • Open your log file
      • Get the expected "no results found," because you're trying to submit a disc ID that isn't on MB yet
      • Open the submission page, search for your album, and add it

      However, if you have to do all that, it would just be faster to use this website (https://eac-log-lookup.blogspot.com/).

      So my idea is:

      • You load the album into Picard and match it with the URL however
      • Picard scans said folder for a log file if MB doesn't have a disc ID (not sure if Picard can read that?)
      • Picard opens up the submission search page of said album via the MBID ("&filter-release.query=28b64af1-9778-4508-972f-c8b85b93819a" for example), so you don't have to search for it, either in Picard or in the browser
      • Submit from there

      I'm not sure how feasible that is, but making it more streamlined would be helpful.
