CDs are a bloomin' nightmare!

Even when we finally agree on the "country", it often doesn't feel satisfactory to me, for the reason that many will be searching for their copy of a given album, and see it listed as European, or international, and think: "Well mine has all these details, but is UK etc., and so think that a particular issue is not the issue they have...even though it is :confused:

What I think we've discovered is that rather than actually being us making a mess of it, the story of the manufacture and distribution of the CDs is actually a mess at point of origin.

A few factors being responsible:

As the European Union has been established, and progressively included more countries, the markets, and regulations on product markings has changed.

and incremental globalisation has occurred.
