Bug Description

As both Libre.fm and Last.fm uses MusicBrainz IDs to keep track of data, it would be great if Exaile would send the MBIDs along with the other information it scrobbles.

I'm not 100% sure about the scrobbling API, but data on the MBID tags can be found here (and should be extractable, even without full MusicBrainz support (bug #135920)): http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Picard_Tag_Mapping

I believe this would also allow last.fm submission of audio CD tracks without the concerns arising from CDDB various artist data.

Thing is that we would need to ask Last.fm/Libre.fm for the MusicBrainz ID first, only to send it back upon scrobbling. Doesn’t really make sense and adds unnecessary overhead.
