Would it very perhaps be possible to add the category single-sided / 1-sided / Single-sided / 1-side playable or something like that at Extra Features? Often occurs with commercials, flexis, tapes, promos, etc.

Same question regarding the very specific music direction Noise (Merzbow, Whitehouse Boyd Rice etc.), In the current range of genres there is nothing that the furthest away covers the load.

Almost all CDs can also be played unilaterally ... (;-)

Importers are flexible and precise. Obviously, we should not allow users to give CDs that characteristic ...

@ Arco, I agree with you

But I would rate most users of Catawiki highly enough to understand that

(even i get it)

but with flexsingles it is often the case that they can be played on one side, but that is not standard. (i.e. a feature)

And you can also indicate in the description of the characteristic that it only concerns vinyl and tapes. I am in favor of including this as an extra feature.

Genre is a different story and should be tackled as a larger project. There are many wishes there, but we also want to keep it clear.

Then what do we do with "Second Winter", Johnny Winter's infamous three-sided double?

Which by the way as a regular double (CW 8600 ) is in the catalog, is that correct?

'Contains' in the description of the Extra feature seems to me to be sufficient. We have done the same with other characteristics.

"Contains" it should be.

Johnny Winter has been adjusted, there was a takeover error in the past.

I've just added "Contains 1-sided playable vinyl" to Extra Features.

This topic reminded me of the DVD I Claudius: it had double-sided DVDs, but this aside :-)

the 'Extra features' field

has 'Contains live tracks' and 'Concert registration'.

Can someone explain the difference? I see it with the same meaning.

And what do you think about adding '180 grams of vinyl' to the extra features?

Or 'HQ Audiophile vinyl'

And 'Limited Edition'

A concert registration is exactly what it says: the registration of a concert. However, there are enough carriers that only contain one or a few live tracks.

But what's the point of saying "180 grams of vinyl"? After all, nowadays it is simply on the cover. In addition, in the 50s there were probably also plates that were 180 grams. Do we have to weigh all plates?


'Limited Edition': is one of the most meaningless statements that we can find on a plate (or in a book). What do they want to say with this? How many are made of it? (In fact, each release is limited)

According to experts, 180 grams seems to sound better and has a longer shelf life than the regular 140 gram LPs. The Dylan 'Bootleg Series' at 180 does indeed sound better than at 140. The price difference is, by the way, shocking. To add it to 'extra features' might go a bit far and is pointless if an edition only consists of 180 gram LPs. In the event that there is a 140- and a 180 of the same edition, an entry under 'Details' does not seem a superfluous luxury to me.

On closer inspection, I think the separate entry of 180 grams under Extra features is a good idea. There are probably collectors who are mainly looking for 180 grams.

We call this progressive insight.

For example, I have become more and more convinced that audiobooks belong among the other audio carriers.

Mistaken about my previous comment. The deluxe Dylan bootleg series on vinyl are pressed at 200 grams instead of 180 grams. Boss above boss.

I took the plunge and added 180 grams of vinyl :-)
