So what that's in Bulgarian or released by someone in Bulgaria?

IT's still world wide

warp, because people who can read bulgarian can be anywhere in the world and not just Bulgaria

i don't think the guidelines are very clear on this either, so for now I'll leave this as bulgarian... but won't object if someone changes it to [worldwide].

I think I used emacs from 1998 to 2006, and vim since that. so I have many more years of emacs experience, i didn't expect it would take such an effort to switch back...

"The ReleaseCountry is the country in which an Release was sold from a certain ReleaseDate on." ... so i'd say.. it's sold worldwide per internet..

or maybe the definition is just not precise enough.. especially if its freely available everywhere and not sold.. its still a release but a country doesn't really make sense.. hmm

It seems country really differentiates between versions of what the label brands as the same release, such as a [US] vs [UK] release, where the tracks on each individual release may differ slightly
there used to more of a preference for ascii-only, but now people seem to be ok with all latin stuff

'theyr' is probably more useful for english speakers, but by icelandic alphabet ordering, þ should be after z

is wouldnt expect Þeyr to be under T. I'd probably look under P, but I'm stupid
he's talking about Arturo Bassick, member of The Lurkers & PinPoint. I like Arturo, I now think Martin Rushent is a twat

you should never translate stuff. Raped Teenagers EP has lost some of its shine once I translated the title "Jag gillar blommor" (I like flowers)

are those changes intentional or is it an encoding/codepage issue?

the accented characters
2009-01-09 00924, 2009

they are differences between the tags on the files and a tracklisting online. tags have Målet, tracklisting says Malet

http://www.swedishpunk.com/records.php?id=608 no context really. its a track title. It threw me that the tags had an accented character while (the usuall) very good website doesn't.

thanks symphonick ställ dig i kö makes more sense. google translated Stall dig i ko, ko as stand in the cow, cow. which seemed a puzzling title

well, "place yourself in [the] line, cow" makes most sense... I'd need the rest of the lyrics to figure out Målet vs. Malet
