According to the rules outlined here: http://www.theofficialcharts.com/chart-rules/ -- only one of a disc in a set like this will count towards the charts.

I think that's debatable. At least when I look at something like this: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=1530809 -- I'm not sure how we could say definitively that it's not part of the title. > But, if it's visibility you want, have you viewed an RG using the > comment field for this? > http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/c4dd8d9f-95c4-38e4-a364-50ee5be0c952 > > Ugh...
