[mb-users] Bootleg DiscIDs

[Joan Whittaker]

I don't see the problem here, even though they may exist as albums,
compilations or live.

As it is, if you look at the "official releases", how many times do you see
a compilation disc which has been wrongly attributed as an album.  I know
that I have moved very many such out of the album category and into
compilation.

If it is bootleg, then then can co-exist quite happily together, and as they
would be further down the list than albums or compilations, unless you opt
for show all releases, then you need never see them.
