SBPS-0038: Another Eden 8bit Arrange CD

[cal]

There's two packages:

Regular edition (3024 yen): SBPS-0036~7 / 2 CD
Regular edition + Arrange CD (3996 yen): SBPS-0036~8 / 2CD + 1 CD [only available on Amazon.co.jp]

Note that the catalog numbers are the same, excluding the bonus disc.

I wonder if there should there be a separate entry for the package without the bonus disc OR if the bonus disc should be it's own entry.

site is clear about it
-> SBPS-0036〜37 + SBPS-0038
if it was meant to be SBPS-0036〜38, they'd have written SBPS-0036〜38

edit: the release should be 3cds but with SBPS-0036〜37 as visible catalog (and SBPS-0036,37,38 in the media info catalog)
as 2 CD + 1 Exclusive Bonus CD in media isn't possible

No, it should be split into two entries. One should be 2CD and the other should be 1CD. There has to be a differentiation between two different physical products even if they share the same catalog numbers. In this case, the 3rd bonus disc just has to be a standalone entry. It doesn't matter what the website says, the database is not capable of handling two entries with the same catalog so it has to be split up. If it could handle two entries with the same catalog number, we could create two entries -- one 2CD and the other 3CD, but it cannot.

tbh, we should be doing the same with vinyl color variations as well, but we don't. Users need to be able to differentiate different physical products in the database both for browsing purposes and for collection purposes. The Album Info section does not suffice for this.

my edit was just in case he'd not want to make a 2nd entry

actually, it needs a 2nd entry (I hadn't clicked the link on procyon site because I thought it'd be the same link I had found earlier on amazon site)
- the 2cds release has 4582179010173 (procyon studio)
- the 3cds release has 4560434570464 (amazon jp)

Yeah, Phono is right. Separate JAN = separate entry (didn't know about this when I added it). I've distinguished this one by adding "[with 8bit Arrange CD]" in the title field.

Regular edition is here: https://vgmdb.net/album/78618

Converted entry to only include 8bit CD. My original thought was that these would be bundled together in some fashion, not separate items with different JANs.

- Changed -8bit Arrange- to (8bit Arrange) per insert
