this was initially my thoughts to, but then MBz isn't really a repository of audio data, but rather a repository of textual information. it's just that currently the text is used to tag audio files. i don't think we'd be wrong to say that a DVD entry was 'official', when all it is is an entry of all the titles on the release. the ripping from the DVD is something user does. _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list [email protected] http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
