Actually I know of a couple cases where fictional characters are assigned
composition credits. _Maybe_ with research the real people could be
discovered, but it's also possible you wouldn't find anything.

As long as mastering/mixing/engineering relationships apply to the Recording
level, and can't be moved to a Track/Tracklist level (Release level doesn't
work, because each recording could have different involved people), then
there is absolutely no way you can merge (1) and (2).

+1, but this needs guidelines / serious thought first.

a different gender than the voice actor/actress behind him/her. It can only
be helpful.

Maybe we should split Format into some form of Physical Format and

physical we'd have 12cm and 8cm, and for digital we could have...
