[mb-style] infinity loops and track durations
Here's a crazy one: could we add the infinity symbol - or something simular - as possible value for track durations? In fact endless loops are only gimmiks of vinyl releases - just one reason why I love vinyl - and I doesn't know one CD using this. A lot of vinyl releases using this and it bugs me to leave that information out and putting this into the album annotations. Just one example: The vinyl release of Speedy J's album Loadboxer (Label: NovaMute Catalog #: NoMu 93 LP) contains 200 infinity loops, which the CD release is made of.

ahh, locked grooves! i like those very much :) it's only possible with vinyl as far as i know. certainly not with CD. personally i think it'd be just as well added to the annotation, and with the time left blank.

Re: [mb-style] infinity loops and track durations
heh, that was just what i was about to say to :) yeah i think this is best, and is useful information. in the event of a normal track ending with a locked groove, i think it'd be best to say total track time = track time + locked groove time (before it repeats). there are probably other crazy things artists have done with vinyls. eg you you can get ones which play 'backwards' (ie from the inside to the outide of the platter), or ones with 2 grooves with different tracks running on the same side, so you the one you hear depends one what groove you happend to start on. these don't affect times, though :) - Original Message - From: 999 [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MusicBrainz style discussion [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 30, 2006 5:54 PM Subject: Re: [mb-style] infinity loops and track durations How about adding the time it takes for on complete loop?
