MetaBrainz Foundation

A non-profit operating open music and media metadata projects including MusicBrainz.

Community / Open Project Active

The MetaBrainz Foundation is a non-profit organization that operates several community-maintained open data projects focused on music and media metadata. Its flagship project, MusicBrainz, is a collaborative database of music information that evolved from the need for an open alternative to CDDB. MetaBrainz also operates related projects such as AcousticBrainz, BookBrainz, and ListenBrainz, all aimed at providing structured, freely available metadata for creative works.
