So I added this album to the db


Zenith by Molly Nilsson

And it was edited by someone saying the release date was pushed back. They're mistaken tho, it was only the vinyl release that got delayed. CD and Digital were released on schedule.

So this got me thinking though, lets say hypothetically there was no CD release, the only physical format was vinyl. If the vinyl were delayed, but the digital were still released on time, it would still have the original release date, right? Or would we give preference to the physical release date? Personally, I buy the vast majority of my music digitally, so it'd be weird for me to be like "yeah this album I bought legally isn't out yet".

Also in this case no matter what the CD is out can someone please set this back to the correct information that I originally added?

The release date should be based on the original release of the album which in this case, as you say, was on digital/CD. The date that you supplied looks correct, so it has been reverted.

My apologies. The blurb on the website was not exactly clear, and it did appear that, just reading that, the actual release was delayed. I see where below that, the non-vinyl release was on time.

Oh no prob, definitely seems like something to be on the lookout for with all the vinyl releases getting delayed.

The album still seems to be flagged tho, is that one of those things that takes a while to refresh?

I've noted the album that it shoulod be unlocked just in case.
