Windows Media Player Doesn't Add Info During Rip / Ripping Task

I'm ripping some brand new commercial CDs and all the album info is "unknown," song titles are missing- not good.
What the heck is going on??? Please help!

    Some older software relies on Freedb or CDDB.

    Ensure these services are enabled and accessible.

    Note that Freedb has been deprecated, so newer databases are preferred.
