      • Prodoc wonders if MB shouldn't get a user section where users can specify which releases they have

        Prodoc: I'll happily talk FOAF and Sem. Web with you some other time - just poke me! :D
      • 2006-09-19 26247, 2006

      • Freso
        Prodoc: It shouldn't.
      • 2006-09-19 26205, 2006

      • Freso
        Prodoc: But it would be great if another site used MB data for that purpose. ;)
      • 2006-09-19 26220, 2006

      • Prodoc thought about that as well
      • 2006-09-19 26238, 2006

      • Freso has given it a wee bit o thought as well
      • 2006-09-19 26247, 2006

        darn those IEC people sure make it hard to find out more detail about a specific standard unless you buy it

        eh sod it...no point in using a standard which can't even be found easily

        that really does need amending to fit current practice and to cater for the none tagging purposes the data is being used for

      • 2006-09-19 26259, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        it doesn't cause any harm
      • 2006-09-19 26256, 2006

      • dseomn
        everything causes /some/ harm
      • 2006-09-19 26205, 2006

      • dseomn
        it takes space in the db
      • 2006-09-19 26223, 2006

        but if it's done for all classical for no reason it could add up
      • 2006-09-19 26226, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        maybe all other information that about it being composed by WAM will be lost, and nobody will know who the real composer is
      • 2006-09-19 26258, 2006

      • dseomn
        ojnkpjg: you mean it would be moved to another artist and the edit would be removed?
      • 2006-09-19 26205, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        no, i was just being sarcastic :P
      • 2006-09-19 26210, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        i don't like that edit
      • 2006-09-19 26218, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        if we ever change the way we do things, it'll just end up being deleted
      • 2006-09-19 26233, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        because we won't want to replicate the fact mozart composed something 10000 times
      • 2006-09-19 26254, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        i don't know that i'd vote no, though
      • 2006-09-19 26255, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        it is correct
      • 2006-09-19 26206, 2006

      • dseomn feels the same way
      • 2006-09-19 26218, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        yes, although the edit isn't actually incorrect, it does seem a little pointless at the moment
      • 2006-09-19 26253, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        i just can't see it ever being useful
      • 2006-09-19 26207, 2006

      • dseomn
        if the data is restructured, it /might/ help, but it might not and it's just as likely to require a delete mod as to be used in the new style
      • 2006-09-19 26209, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        also, for what it's worth, with the new AR in the album display, it could produce needless server load

        if classical ever gets reorganised to put releases under the performers, it would be useful
      • 2006-09-19 26212, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        or if there are different 'views' put on that data
      • 2006-09-19 26250, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        bye dseomn
      • 2006-09-19 26231, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        i think any kind of reorganization of classical would have to include a fundamental "piece" or "work" entity
      • 2006-09-19 26236, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        so that you could say X composed Y once
      • 2006-09-19 26253, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        or else you end up with half a database full of bach composed relations

        wow! there have been a lot of new discid associations today. People have been adding discids like crazy recently

        to, for instance, clean up a couple of thousand tracks, that you may have left playing on album repeat whileyou were on vacation
      • 2006-09-19 26236, 2006

      • BrianG
        ah
      • 2006-09-19 26242, 2006

      • BrianG
        its under your recently played list
      • 2006-09-19 26251, 2006

      • ojnkpjg
        what if it's not so recent anymore?
      • 2006-09-19 26254, 2006

      • BrianG
        i don't know how far back it goes though

        inhouseuk: another prominent Saga fan joined us who maintains a fan discography. he was adding lots of disc IDs to them recently
      • 2006-09-19 26211, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        yeah, that accounts for some of them
      • 2006-09-19 26228, 2006

      • Shepard
        38 he added so far
      • 2006-09-19 26238, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        cool
      • 2006-09-19 26211, 2006

      • Shepard
        perhaps it's also because of that bug that you can't add albums with disc IDs combined with a freedb import anymore, so people are adding the disc IDs separately instead ;)
      • 2006-09-19 26215, 2006

      • inhouseuk
        hmm, nope the data I was checking would show ones added at the time of adding the release as well

      • Shepard
        oh yeah, I noticed them adding albums with disc IDs
      • 2006-09-19 26203, 2006

        in very different genres
