I think having scans means that we shouldn't have to mention the packaging all that often unless it's something unusual.

It's always hard to get a balance of having enough useful disc/vinyl types vs having too many so that people get confused (and possibly put off) entering their own CDs into the database.

It sounds cheeky but I think most people aren't too interested in whether a jewel case is slim or wide.

Once again a balance between discogs style mega-detail vs the average music fan

How can images differentiate between a digipak and a card sleeve?!

I can't see how one extra field for package type would put people off - just a simple drop-down option. I don't think that would take us into discogs territory

Package type also helps to differentiate between different versions of a release as many CD singles were released in jewel and digipak versions or a card and a digipak. The package also often varied between countries.
