I'm asking about CDs which specifically describe themselves as "album samplers". A "1 or 2" track promo CD almost never describes itself as such, so those aren't really the issue. I'm particularly asking about cut-down albums, issued for promotional use which have an ambiguous number of tracks, so far as single/album classification is concerned. For instance, I just ran into a 7 track sampler from a 37-track album. Neither fish nor fowl ?

As for relying on the mods, well that's OK up to a point. However, it creates unnecessary workload for them, if there is an established "rule of thumb", plus they don't always get it right (they're human after all), so better to get it right first time, if at all possible.
