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

This seems really wrong to me (the 196 countries).
The country field is supposed to be used to store “the country the release was issued in” not where it’s available. @rdswift pointed this out much earlier in the thread:

Perhaps we need to think about what we mean by “Release Country” as part of the release event. Are we confusing this with “Available in Country”? For example, a CD released in one country is shown as having one release country, even though it may be available for purchase in other countries. How is a digital release any different? It is typically released in one country, yet available in many countries.
