It finally got released??
Do you have a UPC? It doesn't seem to be in DVDProfiler yet. I think they released a limited edition of 3 copies. You can probably still grab one on ebay for $1  | | | | Corey |

I almost never bother to change online genres, but I have to disagree about documentaries. I agree most docs are of general interest, such as Planet Earth, but a documentary about pig breeding would fall under Special Interest to me at least. The appeal should at least be somewhat general imho.
Also, things like fireplace and aquarium DVDs, I would put under Accessories rather than anything else. That's why I don't bother to submit any genre changes to the online anymore. Too much disagreement and not worth the argument. Especially since the genre field locks automatically. The other things I have listed under special interest are a couple of bonus promo discs, a compilation dvd from Trading Spaces, and all of the Mythbusters I have, though I'm considering changing those to documentary. I was never sure what "Accessories" meant so I have nothing listed for that one. | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

Genres do not seem to be hard science data. No surprise there. Even the rules clearly state as much: Quote:
Genres are often a matter of personal interpretation, which can differ among users. |

| | Posted: | | | | I use it for all my Mixed Martial Arts DVD's. I can't remember if it was listed in the rules or another thread, but I read that's what we are supposed to classify them under. I believe pro wrestling is also considered "Special Interest" |

| | Posted: | | | | I would have classified pro wrestling under "Sports" ... and maybe mixed martial arts as well.
Just more proof genres are in the eye of the beholder. | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
