I like the idea of getting ETI out of title, but I'm not so sure the comment field is the right vehicle (for reasons already stated in this thread). I would love to have a “version” field to recognize live, album, remix, dubs, etc. I'm also not so sure we should put ETI such as featured performer in a comment field—ARs might be more appropriate if we could have relationship “ordinality”.

Examples: "11 O'Clock Tick Tock (live)" would become "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" with comment "live" Without change: http://test.musicbrainz.org/recording/24d39446-175e-4522-87f3-6c19ca3e76e4 With change: http://test.musicbrainz.org/recording/e34ce26c-9060-4646-98e0-388e6ff340b2 My reasoning is that extra title information is not really part of the recording title, and we now have a specific field for this kind of information. Could we take a quick decision on the subject? I would be nice if it could be in the NGS RC1 release, and it can always be reverted for later NGS migrations if we realize that it's a bad idea.
