UHQCD format is applied on this release.
I reported to SS and have it added about a month ago, but it isn't yet prepared on advanced search. Apparently it's a kind of high quality audio CD format like SA-CD. http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/thread...d-more.576237/ Do we have any other albums with this format on db? |

We do have some: http://www.neowing.co.jp/searches?te...&page=&q=UHQCD
Also if we are adding UHQCD to the db I guess we should also have an option for Sony's version of it, the Blu-spec CD: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-spec_CD / http://www.neowing.co.jp/searches?te...&q=Blu-spec+CD Although, I question the usefulness of adding either to the db. Ultimately, UHQCDs and Blu-spec CDs are still normal Red Book audio CDs. |

Also adding to this, HQCD and UHQCD aren't the same thing: https://vgmdb.net/album/35283
There are a bunch of formats beside those nstz mentioned like Blu-spec 2, HDCD, XRCD and so on, maybe we should have another field for them instead of changing them from CD. |

Providing more detailed CD formats looks like not so bad idea.
As long as we have SA-CD already, I think the rest of formats would be considered by admin. Last edited by whatkind; Mar 12, 2021 at 08:05 AM. |

SA-CD is actually a different format rather than being just a regular redbook audio CD made with a different manufacturing process.
That being said, a lot of SA-CDs are hybrids that can be played on regular players too. I agree we should show the info somewhere though so if adding a new field is too much work, that's fine. |

So, I am torn on this now. If the format plays in all existing players, then does it really need a new media type? On the other hand, we have Flexi Discs in our media list. They play in any record player, though they are physically and distinctively different than regular records.
On the other hand, you've got a quality difference, as mentioned in the linked discussion. That alone might necessitate adding these formats to the media list. especially if there are wide-ranging reprints of some of the game/anime music catalogs because of this. |

Since we've added Blu-spec CD, any chance we can get "HQCD" and "Blu-spec CD2" as well?
We also have a HDCD (yet another format) in the database, not sure if there are more: https://vgmdb.net/db/covers.php?do=view&cover=200959 |

We also have an SHM-CD: https://vgmdb.net/album/35248

PLAYBUTTON might be worth adding as well since one was added in the zelda ost: https://vgmdb.net/album/75832
We also have 4 more in the database: https://vgmdb.net/album/62801 https://vgmdb.net/album/62802 https://vgmdb.net/album/54775 https://vgmdb.net/album/43056 |

So, I have added all of these formats, but is this just the tip of the iceberg?

Woah, audiophile voodoo bullshit creeping into the db. Are you guys serious?
