Sony Music "for use as release label only when no sub-label/imprint is specified"

@tigerman325

it appears that this originally was because at one time only one label was allowed on a release? Is this true?

Exactly!

Similar topic:

Why can’t we set this or that label?

I think we need such a topic. I have too many releases that I added with lots of time and love and which information is getting removed or diluted to end up not the same releases than what I had in hands, any more. When collecting a release I need to set all disambiguations that I can to be able to distinguish my release from that other random edition. Sometimes one of the main differences between two editions is just a logo. Always, I need to see the same list of logos on MB to be sure this…

Good proposal (main label):

Standard Japanese catalogue numbers (規格品番)

I really like this idea. It would also be nice if we could simplify labels. Maybe allow us to enter all labels shown and have a drop down field to assign it as primary, parent, distributor, etc People who don’t know anything about labels could just enter the labels on their release, more experience editors can assign the correct category the label belongs to.
