I'm a newcomer editor and I'm looking to add a vinyl release which is split up in 4 discs, whereas the existing CD release that I'm basing it on only has 2. As a result, I'd like to move half the tracks of each to a newly added medium, but I haven't found a way to do that which doesn't involve manually copying every track onto the new medium. Did I miss something?

qreon[m]: Can you point us to the release in question? But yeah, generally, if the media structure is different, the new one can be challenging.

It's not published yet but I can once it is

or did you mean the CD release that I'm basing the new one on?

I think I found a workaround, when I add a new medium I can just base it on that same CD release and remove the tracks that are not on it

Way less tedious lol

qreon[m]: Good plan. Yes, I meant the CD release, but it sounds like you got it sorted.
just checking: bandcamp subscriber-only releases (where you have to join and pay per month to get them) are still "purchase for download", right? (but not stream for free, since you can't do that for subscriber only stuff)

we don't really have hard rules regarding this but that seems reasonable, yeah

especially "stream for free" is an incredibly fuzzy relationship in any case (and should be deleted in my opinion)

because you're not really *meant* to be streaming the bandcamp previews for free, ig?
2025-08-07 21946, 2025
i522
yeah, i can see that

Bandcamp will also start nagging you and eventually lock you out from streaming paid releases afaik

but by convention that relationship is also applied to e.g. Spotify links

which is only "free" in a very technical sense
