There's a note at the bottom saying: * "2 in 1" releases should have a third release group. This applies to all Release Types, including 2-in-1 albums and double A-side singles. e.g. ABBA's "Waterloo / Voulez-Vous" should not be merged into "Waterloo" or "Voulez-Vous".
Although it's implicit above, I think we should make it explicit that the same applies to box sets. I.e., release variations of a disc in a box set should go in a separate release group from the box set. Note that the (implicit) rules are that single-disc and multi-disc variations of a single release go in the same RG; multi-disc releases containing discs of multiple releases (including 2-in-1s and box sets) go in their own RG, separate from the components. I think it's important to make the distinction explicit in all cases, especially since the overlap is sometimes hard to draw a line through (e.g., a 2-disc version of a release whose “bonus disc” is a somewhat unrelated EP, but released under only the name of the primary disc). -- Bogdan Butnaru On Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 10:04 AM, Nikolai Prokoschenko<niko...@prokoschenko.de> wrote: > So here it goes again: we are now ready to receive comments > on the Release Groups guideline for it to become official! > > It's located in our wiki at http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Release_Group , > please comment! _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
