2 minutes for a CD track/album info lookup is way too long. 15 seconds is also too long, but acceptable. The old cd-ripper abcde in Linux used to get it from CDDB near-instantly. Even copied CDs take less than 15 to get a track response for me. I'd say WMP is a bit slow if it takes anywhere near 2 minutes. (And most CDDB-like searches check against serial number, track number and length, and a few other things before they go the Shazaam-like route of comparing waveforms. Database seek time should be quick... except under insane loads.)
