Alternative tracklists

    XMLWordPrintable

    Details

      Description

      Tension between normalized data and what the cover says is a recurring source of conflict. A technical solution to this problem would be to add support for alternative tracklists on a single release. These kinds of alternative tracklists would be useful:

      • "exactly as on cover"
      • official translation, for releases that have titles in mulitple languages
      • unofficial translations, for which we currently use pseudo-releases

      I think this was first suggested by someone (not me) on musicbrainz-style, but I can't find the original discussion.
