Re: [mb-style] Bonus discs?
Pre NGS, the fact that a release was a bonus disc was predominantly suggested in the release title. Now NGS bundles the bonus disc with the rest of the release but should there still be an explicit indication in the release group that this is a bonus release or is the number of discs sufficient?

Please see the discussion at http://musicbrainz.org/edit/14499722 This seems like a clear regression from classic MB to me, as in many things with track listings; no artists, no ARs, etc. This is probably the more minor of those, but important nonetheless. -- Andrew :-) Support Free Java!

It does seem that this ability was lost in the move to NGS, but I'm not sure I think it's important. Thoughts? When a particular two disc release exists in a release group which also has a one disc release with an identical first disc, that implies the second disc on the two disc release is a bonus disc. Similarly for releases with more discs and/or more bonus discs. I personally do not see the need to keep track of this information in a more explicit way. -- kuno / warp. ___ MusicBrainz-style mailing list MusicBrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
Re: [mb-style] RFC: Add Secondhandsongs Relationship Type
Nobody interested in this? Although I've never heard of it before, it seems like quite an interesting resource for works to me.

For those who are not aware of it, it's a database dedicated to cover songs (and also samples).
