Watch_Dogs Original Game Soundtrack
Removed WiiU from platforms as that version won't be released in some acceptable time window for this album (expected release is Fall at best).
Also wanted to ask this, if the CD turns out to be identical, what would be the rationale to keep this digital version since we're still trying (I think) to avoid separate entries for digital versions with the same release date & content? |

Why remove WiiU if it will have the same music as rest of the versions/ports? And same game?

Because if the WiiU port isn't released very close to the date of this album OST, it can't be the represented platform for this particualr album. Doesn't matter if it's the same music (and obviously it will be the same). That's a pretty old guideline/discussion/problem etc.
That's why ME1 OST doesn't have PC or PS3 selected. It's the same game. Same music. But the guideline/concensus. And bunch of others. But I'm pretty sure there are a lot inconsistencies though (as with everything around here). Recent topic that reminded me about this: http://vgmdb.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5040 |

It seems like the Front cover for the CD edition will be different.

It seems like people just get off on making as many entries about the same thing as possible, even when the differences are superficial and insignificant. Maybe it's just me, but I really find it being redundant. There are so many distributors becoming these days, one version of the OST is a pre-order bonus at Steam, one is sold at iTunes on day1, one comes out it lossless at Qobuz a month later... hey let's make a separate entry for each and everyone of them. I mean come on. |

We do need a CD entry, that's sure. Like i said in a previous post (and i think you agreed), CD entries are more important.
About the digital entry (at least for watch_dogs) we can keep it because: - it have a different cover - it have a different release date - it have a different way of accessibility (commercially available for a few bucks and not buying a whole physical collector's edition) |

OK, so:
-it has different front cover, fixable by putting it in CD entry too and marking it as front (digital) -it does not have a different release date - iTunes and Qobuz as well as the CD all have May 27th (aka today lol) -way of acquiring can be easily added to the notes of the CD entry, like it has been done many times before as "Also available digitally blah blah" and of course adding purchase links too and marking them as (digital). Let me just say I'm fine with either way but having in mind we're usually so pressing against content-wise identical digital versions (with the same release date), one small front cover may seem like pushing it. Also this is irrelevant but I'm certain I noticed the album on iTunes several days before the page for digital release was created here but avoided to make it because I thought the tracks will all be the same (and in the same order) as on CD, and they are. |

Not related with Watch_Dogs but what's with these (member pointed these to me regarding different matter a while ago)? These are even worse, how are these digital versions different in any way from their CD parent? Seriously. Just because the booklet is digital (of course it is digital in a digital edition) nevermind the digital version is identical in every way. I mean, really?

I can always assume nobody cared about it back in 2011. |

They should all be purged.
