Type conflation for WS-compatability of Release Group <type>
Albums
First detected secondary type takes precedence, so in case of Album+Compilation+Remix, Compilation is returned. Kind of a hack, but the value is just there for compat anyway.
- Album+Compilation = Compilation
- Album+Remix = Remix
- Album+Soundtrack = Soundtrack
- Album+Live = Live
- Album+Spokenword = Spokenword
- Album+Interview = Interview
The rest
Return Primary Type and ignore secondary type. While inaccurate, this mirrors how RGs are currently modeled.
- Single + * = Single
- EP + * = EP
- Audiobook + * = Audiobook
- Other + * = Other
