Is there a way to search for artist credits containing terms like "feat.", "with", "present" etc.?

In the standard search, of course.

artist, artistname and creditname don't seem to find it at least, if it's used as part of a join phrase.

KRSCuan: you can search for release groups with artistname:"feat." ... you just have to wade through all the releases by Little Feat before you get to the ACs.
hmm, that's a new one for me. cardboard sleeve has a barcode but plastic wrapping includes a sticker covering it up with a different one

given that the one on the release itself seems to point to a completely different release when googled, looks like a misprint :-)

Zastai: I've seen that with imports. In my case, a US barcode covering the original European one. Probably more common than misprints. Well, I hope so anyway.
seems the limit of one release date per country is wrong.

warp did not know about this limit.

the limit is wrong, or the poster is wrong about that being a limitation?

I assumed the poster is correct about the limitation, but I have never tried to add multiple release dates to a release (since NGS).

It is a bit unclear to me what it would mean for the same thing to be released twice in the same location (without being a different release)

(Worldwide may be an exception there, though)

hawke1: as a location identifier, a whole country is fairly large. I can imagine a release being available in part of a country before being available elsewhere in the country.

CallerNo6 thinks that the release date is not the same thing the date a release became available *from a particular vendor*.(even if the dates match).

a problem in this particular case is I think that there is general confusion about manufacturer vs record label vs retailer for digital releases.
2014-05-08 12849, 2014
warp
CallerNo6: right, ofcourse I maintain that most digital retailers do their own manufacturing (encoding), so for this particular example they are seperate releases because their waveforms are different.
2014-05-08 12829, 2014
CallerNo6 respects warp's ideological purity on the matter :-)

It would be hard for me to argue that Magnatune is not a label. Jamendo seems a bit less so. But it was available from Jamendo before that — and both made it available worldwide. :-/

Also, Magnatune uses Creative Commons 1.0 while Jamendo uses 3.0

Who would I contact about getting a commercial license? We would like to use musicbrainz for our website and the site is commercial so I expect we need to pay.

you’d want to contact ruaok.

what does magnatune do that is label-like? (I'm skimming the /info page, but it seems to focus on distribution)
