Zwyx 7e8fe813e7 Replace Open Media Database by Open Movie Database ...

Based on the source file `jellyfin/jellyfin/MediaBrowser.Providers/Plugins/Omdb/OmdbProvider.csJellyfin`, Jellyfin uses `omdbapi.com` as a metadata provider.

[`omdbapi.com`](https://www.omdbapi.com/) calls themselves `The Open **Movie** Database`.

This seems to be not affiliated with "Open **Media** Database", [omdb.org](https://www.omdb.org/).

I found it incredibly difficult to figure out who is who.

I found [this comment](https://github.com/omdbapi/OMDb-API/issues/89#issuecomment-412158872) from a guy who works for a company — JustWatch — which is in Berlin and whose product is embedded on `omdb.org` (which has roots in Germany too — I know, it's quite light, but it's all I've got).

This comment says _OMDBAPI is an open wrapper around IMDB data_. But, on `omdbapi.com`, it is said _all content and images on the site are contributed and maintained by our users_, which seems to contradict the comment (and it doesn't seems to be open source). BUT, there seems to be no way on `omdbapi.com` to contribute, or create an account, or anything 🤯 

I'm lost! If anyone has more information about all this, please share!
