CDs with malware - Official, Withdrawn or Expunged?

I don’t know if anyone on here remembers, but back in the mid-2000s, there was a huge scandal over Sony BMG Music Entertainment issuing CDs that were booby-trapped with rootkits. After the scandal broke, some of the affected titles were recalled and reissued with no copy protection. My question is this: to what release status should the affected CDs be set here in MB? It’s not clear if Withdrawn or Expunged is the correct selection.

I believe this is one of the examples for ‘withdrawn’ in the guidelines.
