the elimination of "Discos"

	GEMSMFAN Member since Jan 2013 3324 Points	Since "Discos" is "Records" in Spanish, Please remove Discos from "Discos CBS International", "Sony Discos" and "CBS Discos" labels. There will be more than one "CBS" though, and yet "CBS" was a label outside of the USA, although the logo was used by "[Discos] CBS International", which in this case will now just be "CBS" (or CBS International, if you allow the text info, as help and not just the logo). The other "CBS" is the logo which was printed on early Columbia CD's pressed abroad (either in Europe or Japan), for the USA market. The "Columbia" name outside the USA was for a long time an EMI brand, so the acronym existed. Maybe it should be CBS [Latin] for CBS Latin market CD's being submitted? "Sony" by itself was NOT a USA label, but because of the "Sony" logo, I guess we'll have one here. Same for "CBS", we'll have it here based on the logo printed and no text. Moderators: you might want to remove "Discos" from 45cat releases and any other 45worlds also regardless of whether the logo includes it. Edited by GEMSMFAN on 6th May 2014, 4:04 AM

[url][/url] It right now appears on the same page as the early Columbia CD's which were produced for the US market as "CBS". It would either be "CBS International" or maybe "CBS [Latin]"

According to those comments for that label, it is done to make it easier for a Google search. As for "Sony" vs. "Sony Discos", I see an issue. If one does a search on "Sony" or even "Sony CDs", I'll bet one will NOT get 45worlds CD page listing. "Sony" is much more established as an electronics giant. Sony Discos was the Latin arm of CBS in the 90s and eliminating "Discos", clearly eliminates a Google search to this page.

"IM" is ungoogleable no matter what it means. "Sony" is not. I don't think it's really a massive issue either way to be honest.
