Yaniel: scan > not-a-scan, other than that it’s mostly subjective. A release can have multiple scans attached though, so if two separate people both scan their own copy of a release, I’d say it’s fine for two sets of scans to coexist in CAA.

Hm... That's why I didn't upload my scans one time: someone did it a few hours earlier(!)

adendum to what freso said though_ if it's a diital release then we'd want the digital (ie not a (cd) scan) version of the artiwork :)

and but also, I don't think that " A release can have multiple scans attached though, so if two separate people both scan their own copy of a release, I’d say it’s fine for two sets of scans to coexist in CAA." isn't in the guidelines I don't think. but I like it! so i think it sohuld be added

I actually have done this on a few releases where it's difficult to gauge stuff

one was this where the "artwork" was actually stickers *on* the jewelcase

iconoclasthero: why? is there a bug on the ralph stanley entry or something?

this is more of a scan vs digital version of the cover art for the physical cd question though
2019-10-31 30417, 2019
CatQuest
thne i'd say scna al lthe way, and only the digital version sohuld have the digital uh version

OTOH when bands put their physical discography online w/ covers they generally aren't going to be using scans

(ideally even the same files that are printed on the booklets)

in which case I personally would always use the "digital" art (since it has no printing/scanning artifacts)

I wouldn’t.

catquest: no, just that i had to enter 100% of 4 RS CDs.

although to be fair, one of them was in the system not linked to a media

also, why is a comment and a make all edits votable a thing for just attaching a TOC? I mean who's gonna argue that and what is anyone going to put in there except "picard"?

seems if not redundant unncecessary.

seems—if not redundant—unnecesary. (punctuation is not unnecesary in that sentence)

eh, I like the irony of typing "disc at hand" in the comment field

I’ve begun to note where I have physical disc from when adding physical releases, rather than just saying that I have it.
