jesus2099: I think it is silly for jasrac to assign three seperate work codes for this, but it seems useful for MB to have entities which map directly to those jasrac works.

warp why do you turn from kuno to warp and from warp to kuno so much now?

kuno: it’s easier for them to directly know who to send money to when one of the tunes is performed —  not completely silly.

well…

CatQuest: I'm at work. people at work know me as kuno. work has an irc channel on freenode.

huh

ok

ah !

you were wondering this too?

thank you reo :)

i was wondering too :)

kuno: or else we let only one work with 3 compo credits and we stick the three JASRAC work codes on it… it’s better ? like CyberSkull wanted

kepstin-work: this is one of my scans http://ia601900.us.archive.org/31/items/mbid-e7... I don't know if it lives up to high expectations :s

jesus2099: I think it is useful to have seperate works in MB if there are seperate works in JASRAC.

WHAT in the ACTUAL fuck

kuno: that’s what i thought

i had 7 gigs open just 10 minutes ago and now I have like 300 mg and "YOU STARTAP DISK IS ALMOST FUL D:"

FUCK YOU CHROME

i exit chrome and loo and behold, I have suddenly 6 gigs again

what in the actual fuck is this

now I have 10 gigs

so chrome takes 10 gigs of space on the swapfile

seriously

that shit is not cool

but since I don't what the fuck know is the olny broser that works at all

what am i uspposed to do then??

i mean WTF kinda browser do YOU youse???

use*

what am i supposed to actually DO?

jesus. 13 gigs bakc now

what ?

chrome

why does opera have to suck on mac!

you have a 10 giga swap file ?

I want opera back T_T

jesus2099: it has to be. because its chrome

whenever i close chrome i get althis space back

in windows you can limit the swap file, i limit to 0 giga i guess

lol

my ram is enough 3 giga

actually 4 but windows xp can’t see more than 3

hah

maybe you can limit the size, CatQuest

maybe chrome takes everything possible

even if no use

I have no idea how to do that

but

maybe I should try firefox

firefox users: how is firefox today

?

CatQuest: I use both firefox and chrome without trouble.

but opera is better

 ;)

of course it is, but opera 12 on mac is unfinished and broken

but no more i have to stick with opera 12.16 because aftewards they still call it opera but it has almost ZERO opera features

indeed

kuno: magical, what do you do

how do you stop it from hogging resorouces

kuno: maybe i should send you the links of the associated edits…

anyway I have to battle a small storm to go t oschool

see you alter

later

se you later !

fuck i cant put alter to later in symbol and text substitution because alter is a word

fuck

jesus2099: \o_

(^o^)/

CatQuest: Chrome *is* a terrible resource-hogger, doubt there's a way to avoid that

I just close it every once in a while to free memory (thankfully you can set it to remember open tabs)

Speaking of which, seems like it's needing that again :)

jesus2099: yes, I'm not going to find them myself :)

kuno: do you have the POWER VOTE ?

batch mass vote ?

nothing beyond the default

auto-editors all get batch voting stuff

504 :(

My daily edit rate drops dramatically 'cos 504 :/

ok :)

oh sbongtrager told me it was less good than POWER VOTE  ;p

automod’s always overwrites your previous votes (in power vote you shift+click to overwrite, safer)  ;)

kuno: i’m still making the search url…

kuno: i made the link  :) → https://musicbrainz.org/edit/23742153#note-2374...

kuno there is another edits that add Chrono Trigger DS edition works to this OST cluster… i felt they shouldn’t be there and voted no atm…

what do you think ?

what is different about the DS soundtrack that they need to be seperate works?

maybe with my new sub-clusters we can call them ORIGINAL works by MITSUDA, ORIGINAL works by UEMATSU and ORIGINAL works by MATSUEDA and then create that new new DS EDITION works… or somehting if we let it all under the same cluster as it’s still the "same" game

ds edition adds some new tunes apparently

new composer

it’s here kuno https://musicbrainz.org/edit/23689214

so I guess we need a new work for the DS soundtrack, which then consists of all the existing works + the works for new tunes?

ah yes maybe, good idea

it’s true we can have 2 parents

do you know if the DS soundtrack has any seperate entries in JASRAC?

but this make it quite tricky, here it’s ok i think but imagine if the DS edition had removed some works… it would be more difficult to cope with…

well, right now we have for the original: Chrono Trigger Soundtrack -> sub clusters per composer -> works per track

for the DS soundtrack you can definitely re-use the "works per track" even if some of them were removed.

i didn’t find those works in JASRAC

the sub clusers aren't useful unless they have identifiers (e.g. in JASRAC)

only http://pastebin.com/8xDNchSk

i go to lunch, see you later  :)

nikki: since MBS-6700 has been fixed, you can view the duplicate relationsip now. and it looks weird. 2 different rels in http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/086a66e0-2... but dupe rel in http://musicbrainz.org/artist/1e187495-32e2-46d...

seems like "artists and repertoire" = "support"

seems it will rain in berlin..

lol CatQuest, welcome to berlin :D

need help countering a destructive no vote :( http://musicbrainz.org/edit/23703627

Hmm, seems borderline to me. Isn’t every track on an album typically available for purchase separately? (e.g. Amazon, iTunes both let you buy most tracks separately from the album) Does that qualify as a digital single? Or is this more of a release than that?

no

Show me examples where "every track on an album" is typically available for purchase *before the album is released*?

…OK, then why is it being added as a release?

it's a digital single

the album hasn't been released yet

for what it's worth, the album art is also not the album art of the not-yet-released album.

Sounds good to me, then.

Voted yes.

I don't even understand what qbly is saying. A pre-single, a single advertising an upcoming album is standard practice.

it's probably because Japan is not used to digital singles.

I think he’s saying “they’re just selling a track off the album in advance” which is potentially reasonable

I mean, the linked URL is fairly clear in showing it is a digital single though :)

But more and more, digital "releases" are coming out in stages.

( http://recochoku.jp/album/30286441/ )

The different cover art seals the deal for me.

If http://recochoku.jp/album/30286441/ was called LEVEL3 and had only one track, I could see it as "album page with a preview track" in some way, but it's not, it seems a clear single to me :)

I do wish there was a way to "hide" digital singles from the Singles release groups.

most artists' official discographies don't include them.

(speaking about Japan, where CD singles are the only thing that matter.)

reosarevok: I wouldn’t think that — compare to how amazon has separate pages for each track vs. the album.
