A multi‐source seeder for digital releases

Hello

@IvanDobsky has a good idea over here:

Digital releases: Merging? / Long country list? / Just [Worldwide]?

I think in the USA there is a warning on the box that says “don’t hit your thumb” Yes, they can. But atisket is adding releases from these specific stores. So the data it has to hand cannot predate the store. In those much rarer cases where a digital release pre-dates iTunes\Spotify\etc then the date can be manually corrected. If someone has other data to hand they can update the release. But this is not the case here. The majority of these are just using CD\vinyl release dates. This i…

If we can prevent bogus dates from being submitted with the tool, namely those that are obstensively wrong. We can probably work out when Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music were launched and can say that any dates that pre-date that are probably wrong, if not then at least stop people from submitting digital releases from say 1962, 1977 or 1981.
