Why don't you try another freedb server, like some localised one.

Here's the link to Austrian freedb server: http://at.freedb.org:80/~cddb/cddb.cgi

I've written a utility to fix this and stuck it on CodePlex at:
http://eacfreedbfixer.codeplex.com/

Hope this helps someone (I find it useful but feedback on codeplex appreciated).

Basically I found that EAC was making bad requests to freedb (maybe it worked once and freedb has been upgraded?). This utility sits as a proxy between EAC and freedb and fixes up the requests on the way through.

Hopefully EAC will be fixed to make this unnecessary in the future.
