Getting CDDB info for any track

I'm trying to get a large chunk of my poorly-labeled music organized, and would like to automate the process with the help of the Gracenote CDDB. Is this possible?

That's not the way that CDDB works. It attempts to identify track names by looking at the whole album. It looks at total number of tracks, times for those tracks, and total time of the CD (or something like that). So you need to have all of the tracks for a particular album, burn them (in the proper order) to a CD, and then re-import them into iTunes, which will then use CDDB to identify the tracks/album.

That's the method I know that works.

See the Wiki for more info.
