If the credits read:

Music by Person A in Association with Person B

Does Person B get profiled? I thought s/he would because Persons A & B do the same job together. What do you think?

Without knowing details I couldn't say for sure, but I'd be tempted not to profile person B.
In my experience I've found "in association with" to be a more unequal credit than the simple "and" so it suggests to me person B didn't do as much or wasn't as integral as person A.

Edit: I think I've seen the contribution that may have sparked this question, the credit reading "Music by John Carpenter in assocation with Alan Howarth", and although I probably would keep him locally, I can't fault the logic in removing Alan Howarth from the online.

The credit is essentially Associate Composer and I wouldn't list that since associates are generally not credited in Profiler. But that's just my preference.
