I've just done a quick check of the URL AR links and it appears there are
27 album URL AR links and 7 artist URL AR links into www.allmusic.com
It is my understanding that AMG don't allow deep linking[1] and linking
into a competitor is also a little cheaky. Additionally, the wiki[2] also
hints that linking to AMG isn't sensible for technical and legal reasons.
Questions:
1. Should we continue to allow AR's linking into AMG sites?
2. If 'no' to question 1, how can users be informed regarding this or
should a check be put in to prevent those URL's from being entered.
