TV Series, which don't necessarily have child profiles, will therefore have the inner case type.

But because they CAN have child profiles, you have to follow the same criteria as any other box set, otherwise you haven't solved a bloody thing.

Once again: whether a set has child profiles attached, doesn't influence what packaging it comes in. This is something that everyone agrees on, despite our debates about other aspects of the "case type" field. I'll repeat myself: whether a profile has child profiles attachted to it or not, does not influence how it's packaged.

It's really very simple: a keepcase with one movie (no slipcover or anything like that, no children) is a keepcase, and a keepcase with two movies (again, no slipcover or anything, but with child profiles for both movies) is also a keepcase. Honestly: we're all clear on that - you're the only one who doesn't seem to be able to grasp this.

You want to use the "case type" field to indicate something other than packaging - you used to call two movies in a single keepcase a "box set". Well, you were wrong, as lots of people have told you. And with Ken changing the name to "slip case", you can no longer do this. Start another poll if you like - you'll find that there everyone is in agreement on this. It would help this debate if you wouldn't keep inserting these ridiculous statements into it...

And I don't give a damn what kind of case is used; if it contains two or more movies its a box set.  Period.  You don't get to change the defiinition at your whim.  As for your condescension, well, you know what you can do with that.

You didn't misread anything at all.  Some people ARE trying to say those outer boxes should be called digipacks, and you can find a lot of them already in the system set up that way for the master.  Totally wrong.  Should be a slip case with digipacks inside.

If you use a setup like Method 1 in the proposal I posted, you eliminate all the controversy, and nobody loses any information.

I totally agree with that. Disagree with the rest of your post.

And just what do you call "one unit"?  I know some people on here think a season's worth of discs in a digipack is one unit.  They refuse to accept the fact that it is no different than a movie box set with 20 movies spread over 5 or 6 discs.

Let's start of by you not telling me what I think.  And I don't give a damn what kind of case is used; if it contains two or more movies its a box set.  Period.  You don't get to change the defiinition at your whim.  As for your condescension, well, you know what you can do with that.

No, indeed I cannot change the definition at my whim. Ken can do that, however, and he already did. Since the field will no longer be called "box set", you will no longer be able to set "box set" as case type for any set with two or more movies (as you've put it). You can call it "slip case" if you like, but that would be rather silly if we were talking about two discs in a single keepcase without any outer cover of any kind, wouldn't it? I'm really getting a bit tired of your pointless posts...
