Oh I wasn't implying to be consistent with them, I also think that looks ugly.
;)
Just that we put it in that section.

I liked "for" more, and you surely forgot to strip off the "URL" here. ;)

Yeah, URLs make no sense here.
Actually, liner notes _at_ a URL may be worth thinking about. I can
think of some artists official discographies that provide a full
reproduction of the text of the liner notes. It would be nice to be
able to link to them.

Both these seem to be fairly common, just looking around my own CD's.
