shouldn't the second disc be a (bonus disc) as per http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/BonusDisc assume it should be, you wouldn't need (disc 1) > * The new release has additional liner notes and I wanted to add liner > notes ARs. Those would of course not be true for the original release. assuming the (bonus disc) is accurate, this is the strongest reason for keeping them separate IMO, but i don't think our current concept of a releases would allow for it, seeing as we merge everything else. you'd have to annotate to say "this release does NOT contain the liner note credits @ xxxxxx" or something, else people will just think it's mergeable. > * The Amazon ASINs for both releases are different can add multiple ASINs to one release. perhaps they should be per-release event (as should discogs links) but i think this is jumping the NGS gun a bit. > * (Different Cover Artwork) the artwork argument IMO isn't so important because amazon don't get the art right for single ASINs all the time :/ _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
