On Cd you will find "Made in EU"
I highly doubt you will find "Made in EU" written on any CD: "EU" isn't a country. Also, what happens if a new country joins the EU? Will we then have to retroactively go and change any reference to that country to the EU? I don't think so. Is it really such a huge problem to have a "Europe" in the country list? Especially if a particular release was made for the majority of Europe? Especially when the _record label themselves_ say "it's the European release"? Maybe we really need to decide exactly what the release location is supposed to represent? I'd like this matter resolved this time, it's been going on for too long. t -- http://moto-coda.org/public.gpg.key _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
