It seems like the booklet is needed sometimes (tracks 2-7 labeled "PMS: 
Gloria" is suboptimal), but that other places the booklet (which has few 
or no constraints on space/formatting/use of fonts etc.) has more 
details than what is needed and practical.

Do we need to decide?

(Also: arkivmusic.com has been issuing copies of out-of-print CDs (from 
at least the Universal labels), and I think they got some criticism at 
first for not including the booklet. I think few would object to a dose 
of pragmatism and some common sense here...)

I have been cleaning up quite a few Haydn releases lately. First by 
properly identifying the release, and then cleaning up the track listing 
if it was too messed up. A couple of these have only had the movement 
number indicated, so I've used what sources I could find from the 
issuing label, wikipedia, amazon and my own collection. Worklist titles 
is another possible source, sure :)
