personally I'd like to see a country of manufacture field and a separate country of release field
a lot of UK only CD singles have been pressed in various European plants over the years - the main ones seem to be Netherlands, Germany, France, Austria and even Switzerland
Even the sleeves/labels can be misleading by saying made in the EU, when if you look at the actual disc they give the actual name of the pressing plant - only today I spotted one of these in this website, it's been put in the EU section as it says "Made In The EU" on the case insert, but the disc clearly says "EMI Uden" - which is in the Netherlands, yet the disc was produced exclusively for the UK market.

I did find this useful page on a website which gives info. on where the CDs were pressed - http://syldalan.free.fr/plants.html

All I know is, I'd like to see all UK releases i.e. the ones sold here with UK catalogue numbers marked as UK, with a separate field for country of manufacture - after all the "EU" is not a country, merely a trading region.
