Blasphemy maybe... but we can't use info there as an absolute guarantee of validity. (If the day ever comes that we resolve these issues here, I'd wager Discogs would follow this site instead!) A little light bulb has gone off in my head though, in that I'm wondering if the much maligned bar-code may be the saviour of the day... As well as the information contained within it - what it is, whence it came, wither it goes etc. if there is a logical system, or sequence to how the numbers are generated, they could supply a date too. That is, even if the date of release is not one of the pieces of info contained in it, if a ode beginning 7243... etc. was only used after a certain date, it may help when compare with any dates given on the CD itself. Unfortunately, I'm no expert on barcodes so know if this would be feasible. I do maintain that the first page we see when entering CDs though, ought to be label or artist, or almost any other detail except country.
