I wont remove your celldweller link nyght. it seems nicely formatted and looks prooper
2006-05-18 13824, 2006
catmo
and those I want to remove
2006-05-18 13828, 2006

session data : ugh
2006-05-18 13830, 2006
ojnkpjg
maybe we should check for that stuff when they're entered
2006-05-18 13842, 2006
Nyght
thanks.. though all of mine should. Basically I request you stay away from the cruxshadows and the celldweller. :)
2006-05-18 13853, 2006
catmo
well those don't even *look* bogus
2006-05-18 13855, 2006
ojnkpjg
we couldn't catch all of them, but i bet we could detect a good chunk
2006-05-18 13804, 2006
Nyght
other than that, I don't particularly care. 10 years I think has one.. but, I don't recall it's formatting.
2006-05-18 13824, 2006
catmo
yea
2006-05-18 13834, 2006

i've noticed a few albums that have itms in the title when they're itunes only
2006-05-18 13836, 2006
ojnkpjg
i know iron & wine has one
2006-05-18 13843, 2006
Nyght
It's not too hard, check relationship adds album level
2006-05-18 13844, 2006
ojnkpjg
can't think of any others off the top of my head
2006-05-18 13847, 2006
catmo
I don't dissagree with the way nyghts link was. I could open thapage, but it had a picture of the album thingy there and words
2006-05-18 13852, 2006
Nyght
I think you can format the vote search that way.
2006-05-18 13815, 2006
catmo
couldn't
2006-05-18 13825, 2006
Nyght
nope, it's just add relationship period
2006-05-18 13833, 2006
Nyght
you'd get it intermingled with a bunch of other things.
2006-05-18 13842, 2006
catmo
are you talking to me Nyght ?
2006-05-18 13852, 2006

2006-05-18 13821, 2006
ojnkpjg
links from sites that use php that contain session data are pretty easy to pick off
2006-05-18 13835, 2006
ojnkpjg
thinks like cartid are a giveaway, too
2006-05-18 13835, 2006
Nyght
basically I add itunes to the smaller bands.. the larger bands I could give two twinkies about.
2006-05-18 13855, 2006
Nyght
That's sorta what you need to isolate
2006-05-18 13810, 2006
Nyght
for inhouse's wonderful searches. :)
2006-05-18 13812, 2006
ojnkpjg
i think we need tigher guidelines :)
2006-05-18 13821, 2006
catmo
Nyght: that's a good thing. because the smaller bands seem like, well if you add a track/album spesific itunes exlusive link on there, i n that format, didn't eve ninclude 'itubes' i n the url
2006-05-18 13829, 2006
Nyght
possibly ojnkpjg
2006-05-18 13832, 2006

exactly
2006-05-18 13849, 2006

nyghts small bands linking scheme where not messy nor had session data
2006-05-18 13856, 2006

I can buy it. but he

I can format how to do it on a wiki, after you do the "links not to put up"
2006-05-18 13807, 2006
ojnkpjg
personally, i'd never want to see a link to bn.com or wal-mart.com or cduniverse, etc
2006-05-18 13813, 2006
catmo
I can't buy it, but heh, its still valid
2006-05-18 13820, 2006
ojnkpjg
or any retailers, resellers, distributers
2006-05-18 13825, 2006

some random 'blablalba long ass edlinkomg.fhdsfhs/gsgdandsoemmoreDFHG

unless it was exclusive to one
2006-05-18 13834, 2006
catmo
yes
2006-05-18 13838, 2006
Nyght
I personally hate it, but if it gets my bands the revenue they need to tour, I'll buy. :D
2006-05-18 13853, 2006
catmo
I'd like cdbaby, cduniverse and yahoo spesific links
2006-05-18 13855, 2006
catmo
but that's me
2006-05-18 13801, 2006
catmo
yes
2006-05-18 13804, 2006
catmo
I like cdbaby though
2006-05-18 13806, 2006
ojnkpjg
sometimes cdbaby is the only place you can get releases from some artists
2006-05-18 13810, 2006
catmo
I know
2006-05-18 13818, 2006
catmo
I'd like a seperate cdbaby linktype
2006-05-18 13818, 2006
ojnkpjg
so i think those need to be looked at carefully
2006-05-18 13824, 2006
catmo
I wont remove those
2006-05-18 13827, 2006
catmo
i'd add them
2006-05-18 13830, 2006
Nyght
cd baby is great, in some ways.. but a pain in others
2006-05-18 13837, 2006
ojnkpjg
i mostly just buy direct from labels
2006-05-18 13839, 2006
Nyght
you have to do it at the album, or it's a very ugly link
2006-05-18 13840, 2006
catmo
the search is a bit
2006-05-18 13841, 2006
catmo
erh
2006-05-18 13848, 2006
catmo
yes
2006-05-18 13848, 2006
ojnkpjg
or from forcedexposure when it's an import and shipping is too expensive
2006-05-18 13850, 2006
catmo
but I don't mind
2006-05-18 13800, 2006
catmo
I don't think buy links should be per artist anyway
2006-05-18 13805, 2006
ojnkpjg
what's ironic is i can walk to forced exposure's office
2006-05-18 13807, 2006

ojnkpjg
i have to pay for shipping
2006-05-18 13820, 2006
Nyght
I personally think cd baby should be at the album level, period
2006-05-18 13828, 2006
catmo
Nyght: total agree
2006-05-18 13838, 2006
Nyght
though I've seen people want them at the artist level, because it's the only place they sell etc.
2006-05-18 13839, 2006
catmo
I'd remove any artist-cdbaby url
2006-05-18 13847, 2006
Nyght
and then I imagine it should go into annotation.
2006-05-18 13853, 2006
catmo
it sound lgo per album
2006-05-18 13856, 2006
catmo
should
2006-05-18 13858, 2006
ojnkpjg
they could always change their minds later, too
2006-05-18 13802, 2006
catmo
who?
2006-05-18 13805, 2006
ojnkpjg
so there's another reason to not add them at the artist level
2006-05-18 13807, 2006
ojnkpjg
the artist
2006-05-18 13813, 2006
catmo
about twhat?
2006-05-18 13829, 2006
ojnkpjg
i don't know, suppose some artist becomes well-known and wants to sell their stuff in lots of places
2006-05-18 13836, 2006
Nyght
well cdbaby is about the best store for smaller artists
2006-05-18 13836, 2006
ojnkpjg
some artist who was only selling on cdbaby before
2006-05-18 13838, 2006
catmo
oh well
2006-05-18 13851, 2006
catmo
I don't think we should remove cdbaby still
2006-05-18 13853, 2006
ojnkpjg
i'm just agreeing that the links should be album level
2006-05-18 13859, 2006
Nyght
it has the lowest markup, from what I've gathered.
2006-05-18 13859, 2006
ojnkpjg
instead of artist
2006-05-18 13800, 2006

I know from the artists I've talked to. They say, official website, cd baby, and then elsewhere.. usually amazon.
