ТРЕБОВАНИЯ К ДАННЫМ

Введение

В DMB действуют следующие требования к данным, которым должны соответствовать все размещаемые материалы.

Это описание должно помочь вам избежать проблем, которые не могут быть исправлены техническими средствами DMB.

Любое несоответствие требованиям (неважно, умышленно или нет) приведет к невозможности размещения в магазинах вашего контента!

Важно: Пожалуйста, свяжитесь с вашим Контент менеджером, если вы не уверены, правильно ли вы заполнили требуемые данные прежде, чем подписывать релиз на распространение в магазины. В противном случае, ваш релиз может не успеть выйти в запланированную дату релиза - так как контент обычно требует дополнительной обработки после размещения!

Название релиза

Если ваш релиз является частью сериала, информация должна быть представлена следующим образом:

Название релиза, Номер тома, либо Название Серии: Название релиза

Например: Top of the Clubs, Vol. 50

Другие примеры:

• 6x6: The Sixties
• 6x6: The Seventies
• Héroes de los 80: Pasto de Tiburones
• Héroes de los 80: Moviles
• Dreyfus Jazz Club: In the Mood of...Miles
• Dreyfus Jazz Club: In the Mood of...Coltrane

При форматировании названия релиза, который  является частью серии, но не имеет отдельного названия альбома:

• Заголовок серии: Имя артиста

Альбом из одного трека

Название альбома должно соответствовать названию трека, включая всю информацию (ремикс) в скобках, за исключением слова "Single"

Заголовки треков

Track titles need to be unique! It’s not allowed to have more than one track named identically on    one album. The only exceptions are different versions of a track like Clean/Explicit or Remixes.

(But you need to give these versions a different ISRC!)
