Today, I added these two releases:
Yes, they are the same album. They’re identical, except for DistroKid being listed as the label for the Tidal release in Harmony. Because of that, I’ve actually just added a distributor relationship for it in the Tidal version (I have left the label field empty though). But I’m still wondering if it would make sense to merge those two releases? I think it’s very likely that DistroKid has distributed the album to the other streaming platforms as well. What do you think?
P.S.: The releases as of writing this post are in their own release group but that was a mistake, so please ignore that. There’s an open edit to merge them, if you feel like voting.

Definitely merge! I just voted yes on the edits (release and RG). DistroKid is not even a release label.

Thank you for your feedback and your votes. I just saw someone went ahead and made an edit to merge the releases as well. I voted yes.

Should these two releases also be merged?
The latter is the Tidal version and the label assigned to it in Harmony is IIP‐DDS but the disambiguation comment says it’s only a distributor and that we should use ‘[no label]’ instead, which I’ve done, but it feels like the two releases should be one.
I would merge them, no big differences, from the release group view:
It’s just Tidal not being aware of the Nettwerk release label, no?

It seems so, yes. I’ guess I’m gonna go merge the right now.

Ok, here is the edit.
EDIT: I’ve also cancelled the cover art upload edit from the Tidal release, so that there isn’t duplicate cover art on the final merged release.
