What do we want?
- Rob wants something easy to fetch, like coverart.archive.org/<mb release id>.jpg, coverart.archive.org/<mb release id>-1.jpg, coverart.archive.org/<mb release id>-2.jpg so you can go through the pages of cover art.
- Other people might want something where they can specify which cover they want, like coverart.archive.org/<mb release id>/front.jpg
- I'm not set on the scheme, but I want something that an idiot can fetch its so simple. The service should either say: 404 or give you an image. Nothing else. --RobertKaye 20:03, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
What should we do?
- Store lots of cover art! :P
How should we do it?
- With relationships? "has {type} cover art at ...archive.org..." where {type} can be front, back, tray, obi, booklet, ..., other, then upload the image to archive.org with the right URL?
How do we deal with copyright violation notices?
- Send them to the archive.org guy?
- No, we must manage all aspects of this archive. We will likely need to send complainst to copyright@mb and have more people on that email alias. --RobertKaye 20:02, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
