@GSyren: Have you checked one of those profiles in your collection? Because technically it IS impossible!

Utter nonsense. Are you blind or unwilling to accept the truth?


Took me all of 60 seconds, 54 to get the DVD, 5 waiting for the drive to spin up, 1 for reading.

Questions for understanding, reflecting my ignorance: is it possible for a disc-id profile to have multiple discs, or disc(s) with side A / side B?

Some got a re-release with obviously new Disc-ID. So it is definitely wrong to change the ID IN the profile. The only chance to keep it correct would have been to create a new profile with the new ID!

Let us look at a possible scenario.

A box set is released with a UPC for the box, but none for the discs, so the discs are entered by disc ID and added to the box set as child profiles.  At some point after these profiles have been added to the database, someone buys the same box set (with the same UPC and cover art), but finds that the disc IDs for the discs are different.  What is he to do, create all new disc ID based profiles, and add them also as children to the parent profile? (After all, the parent profile is exactly the same in both cases except for the disc IDs of the discs.) That would make it look like the parent has twice as many discs as it really does.  Or does one determine that they may, in fact, add additional disc IDs to the existing disc profiles and keep the box set parent from looking like a bloated mess?

Anyway, that's one way I can imagine a disc ID based profile acquiring multiple disc IDs.
