Is there any chance that "Mediabook" can added to CD World. I added a new Steve Hackett package today and it's described as a "Mediabook", it's probably the 3rd one I've added to date

I think that 'mediabook' is little more than a marketing term. We have plenty of CD issues/re-issues of this type which have simply been entered as 'Box Set' or 'Special Edition', or simply 'CD Album'. An additional category isn't needed, in my view.

It is recognised officially as a format for Optical Disc Packaging and is also known as a Digibook so a little more than just a marketing term

Sort of understand both of yours point of views, but i have to agree with The Judge,
no new category needed.

What we do need is a new field called packing, cause that is what a mediabook is.
A Different Packing.

We have Standard Jewel Case, Digipak, Cardboard, Earbook, Mediabook, Super Jewel Case, Etc,etc to choose from, so a new field for this could be very useful.

Same goes for Edition.
A New field called Edition would be great to have around in the different worlds.
Cause a lot of different Editions exits
Special, Limited, Collector's, 2 Disc, etc, etc

Would it be so difficult to add these new fields to all the worlds?
