Oh right, now I understand :-) We're going into that whole thing of what ETI should be retained for recordings. I'm generally in favour of retaining as much as possible from the various track listings, with the exception of stuff that only makes sense in context (like your examples and, as someone else mentioned, Eurovision countries) and are just plain stupid (Glee Cast version being the one I'm thinking of; now pretty much dead for recordings thank goodness, but retained in the appropriate single listings). For example, if several versions of a track are credited as track X and several more are credited X (radio edit), I would retain the '(radio edit)' in merging these. About the only one it doesn't make sense to keep is '(original version)' or '(album version)'. Likewise, feat. credits should pass to the recording even if they are missed off on some compilations (which tends to happen a lot). > -- > Philip Jägenstedt > > _______________________________________________ > MusicBrainz-style mailing list > MusicBrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org > http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style -- Andii :-) _______________________________________________ MusicBrainz-style mailing list MusicBrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
