Quote: I could go on as most film studios are divisions of a parent company. Why should this be any different? Because it shares a partial name? Sorry, but we need to be consistent with our data. The rule for studios calls for a 'correct' name, not a 'common' name. Those are two competely different concepts...in my opinion, anyway. This not about a film studio, this is about the RCV local distribution in the Netherlands. (Media Publisher) You can't say Whatever Company (UK), but you would be able to say Whatever Company (NL) local branch division? Can't follow this logic? I have no idea what you are trying to say here. Clearly I know this is not about a film studio, but my point still stands. We should use the 'correct' name, whatever that is, not a common name. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

RCV (NL) (Netherlands) has a division: RCV Sell Thru (NL) (Netherlands)
RCV (NL) Publishe(s/d) DVD's as RCV EntertainmentRCV Sell Thru Entertainment now you tell we can distinguish between the RCV Entertainment and RCV Sell Thru Entertainment and yet your not allowed by Rules to Distinguish between RCV (UK) and RCV (NL) Are you trying to say that, since we can't distinguish between 'RCV (UK)' and 'RCV (NL), we shouldn't be able to distinguish between 'RCV Entertainment' and 'RCV Sell Thru Entertainment'? I am sorry, but I can't follow that logic. Yes, the rules prohibit the use of country identifiers but that has nothing to do with this issue. If the name on the DVD is 'RCV Entertainment', that is the name we use. If, on the other hand, the name on the DVD is 'RCV Sell Thru Entertainment', then that is what we use. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

I never said other people didn't think otherwise. All I said is it doesn't follow the way I read the rules. Quote: You can not distinguish between 2 different companies internationaly yet you can distinguish between how the same company uses one of their names its all the same logo
Yes, because the rules tell me I can do one, but not the other. I don't care that they might use the same logo, unless that logo is the only thing printed on the DVD or DVD case...in which case I would have to do some additional research to figure out what the correct name was for that release. What I care about is how the name is written out. That is how we do it for studios, it should be the same with 'media publishers'. That is just my opinion and you don't have to agree with it. I don't own a single Belgium release so it won't impact me in any way. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

No, the Dutch logic is wrong. We don't use The Disney Company, which is the PARENT odf ALL fo thew various Disney Companies(divisions), including Buena Vista HE, they are the HOLDING company for everything Disney including the Walt Disney Parks Resorts(division). So it comes down to what has been said previously for Contributions we are not doing COMMON STUDIO names, EACH film has its own data set if one film says Walt Disney Productions and another Walt Disney Pictures...then guess what that is what you enter, The Disney Comapny does not even enter the picture/ You wish to use a Common Name this an individual user decision and as such belongs ONLY in the Local database.
