Hello everyone,
I noticed a difference in Content-Type header depending whether a status code is 200 or 404. This makes it a bit hard to serialize/deserialize. Am I doing something wrong here? or is this maybe a bug?
I looked at the documentation here but I couldn't find anything related to accept headers:
However I found this in there:
> 406 if the server is unable to generate a response suitable to the Accept header
So that might indicate something, since I do not get a 406 when I request "Accept: application/json" in case it returns 404.
Example 404:
curl -i -L -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://coverartarchive.org/release/9c0be6de-283e-4c94-9a83-4c46da772df0
Output:

Example 200:
