Replace song with newer version

I write music. I create mp3 files of my stuff. Even though I delete a song from my cloudplayer database, and delete the file on my google drive, and then paste an updated file with the same filename, CloudPlayer will find the original song instead of the updated song. (The filename never changes, just the contents of the file change.)

  Hello David, we also got your email on this subject. CloudPlayer is reliant on the cloud provider to provide information on available files. So if an older revision of the file is being indexed, it's likely that Google Drive hasn't updated their servers to give us information on the newer version of the file. It's probably better to update the metadata to include a revision code. This way it's more clear what version of the song is being indexed. (ZD24060)
