| Posted: | | | | I prefer 4, and that is the way I do submit the Disc Info's where none was exisiting.
If I am updating a profile and 1 was the existing data then I would not change that but if the data was one of the other examples I would change it to 4 format. |

| Posted: | | | | I also prefer #4. Imho this matches best because both show the correct abbreviation of the media-type. |

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Taro: Quote: I prefer #1 because Blu-ray seems to be the 'official' name used by the Blu-ray association over BD. That's my thought process as well. We seem to be specifying the format, not the name of the disc, so we are saying 'Blu-ray' rather than an abbreviation of 'Blu-ray Disc'. I like the idea of having one uniform description for the disc, so I will always go for Main Feature (Blu-ray) and would like every dual release in my collection to have the same. |

Is it really that important that it's necessary to contribute updates that only change the description? No it's not. Changes can be made locally. |

If you're updating, at least have the decency to check the cast at the very least. Although I'd say 4 - we call a Digital Versatile Disc a DVD, so why we can't call a Blu-ray a BD is beyond me. |

| Posted: | | | | I thought the idea was to identify the format, not the physical item. DVD refers to both, whereas Blu-ray refers to the format and Blu-ray Disc, or BD, to the shiny plastic disc. | | | Last edited: by Nosferatu |
