I asked the question first on MB Users because I felt it belonged there, but Don Suggested I ask here too, so here we go. I had a feeling (but I may be wrong, since I couldn't find any written confirmation about this) that in classical MB admitted entering different releases (in terms of dates,

Let's say a classical disc is perfectly tagged--it has the cover art from amazon, label and catalogue numbers and the correct album and track titles. Another release comes out and someone tries to add it to MB. It's the same toc, but the album language is different. Wouldn't every single
