Should “Music Collections” be native only?
Looking at the Music Collections chart, it was kinda annoying to see so many HVSC entries there… like, I appreciate the work done on that, 100%, it’s a brilliant thing. But… I was hoping to see a chart of the best native C64 music disks, really.
Maybe HVSC should be classified as Other Platform..? |

I should probably clarify.. if you look at the top 10 music collections right now, 9 of them are HVSC.

By definition HVSC is an other platform release. At least compared to the other releases it is compared to in the current release type. |

Yeah, shouldn't be tagged as music collection at all. |

There is no other possible category because it's not a tool, you can only blame the lack of categories. Add a "sid file collection" and we can change it. |

really not a biggie imho
allowing to EXCLUDE terms in "Advanced" search to filter results would already help the TS with his issue |

Well. It is a release, for other platforms. Often these are not the main interest for csdb compared with c64 stuff. In this case it’s really important as HVSC is awesome. |

Quoting GroepazAnother "problem" that vanishes when the voting nonsence is removed >_< I disagree, the perpetual vote drama is actually quite amusing. Plus it's good to see upvoted stuff occasionally, hell, our Focus demo Thirty was in top 10 for a few days too \o/
dont take that brief moment of happiness away /o\
:P

As the video recording of a demo could not be added as "C64 Demo" ;) the same argument can be made here, as HVSC is not an executable and not running on C64, as "C64 Music Collection" should.
Similarly, if we would have a .d64 with raw music files on it without an executable, we would not categorize it as a music collection, right? We would use probably "C64 Misc".
So this one could probably be correct for HVSC, also what is this category that I have not noticed before, "Related release"? Is it a general C64 related category? Is there a definition somewhere? This one could also be used IMHO.
BTW cannot imagine my life without HVSC. |

no, and whatever gets added here is just everyone's waste of time and bytes stored on this forum.
Make a correct category for HVSC (or any sid file collection) or simply stfu, there is no correct category as of now, it's that simple. |
