Audiobooks in both bookbrainz and musicbrainz

[kaza23]

I added an audiobook in Bookbrainz and I see that Musicbrainz also includes audiobooks, Should I add it to Musicbrainz as well? Are there plans to integrate both Musicbrainz and Bookbrainz for audiobooks?

We had some discussions about this on a recent in-person BB meeting. IIRC the idea was “MB should contain the audio info and BB should still have basic data and the two can be interlinked” but @mr_monkey might want to correct me on something

There recently has been a small discussion about this topic here:

Does it make sense to create separate editions for audiobook CDs distributed with the printed book?

I have several printed books that come with a CD of someone reading the text and I was wondering if such CDs should be added to the database as a separate edition. I generally think they should, but given the fact these CDs weren’t sold separately, I don’t know if it’s correct to do that?

My position is clear but there has been no final decision yet

Sounds good, ill add it to musicbrainz as well and try to remember to like them when its implemented (or if one needs to be removed or whatever else needs to be done in the future depending on the route thats chosen).
