| | Posted: | | | | I was just wondering how to enter a DVD that comes packaged with a regular CD.
Just add it by the UPC# found on the CD package or only by disc ID? |

| | Posted: | | | | Since the UPC is for the hole package, we can look at it as a package containing a DVD. Therefore I see no reason not to use the UPC for the profile. |

| | Posted: | | | | You mean when an audio CD comes with a bonus DVD? The profile should be specific to the DVD itself and use the disc ID, the UPC is that for an audio CD release. In the same vein, we don't detail CDs that come as bonuses to DVD sets, they just get a mention in "Other Features" and that's all. |

No the UPC is for the package including a CD and a DVD. IMO the fact that the CD is marketed as "main" feature is not relevant for the profile. Usually if there is a CD release without the DVD, this package has a different UPC. |

| | Posted: | | | | Yup a DVD that comes packaged inside the CD jewel case. It's not a store exclusive but is marketed as including both. |

If it was a set with 20 CDs and one DVD would you use the UPC then? |

| | Posted: | | | | I've seen users put the CD with the disc ids. For example:
1. Main Feature (Disc ID)
2. Bonus CD
Its also mentioned with Other Features. | | | We're on a mission from God.

Usually if there is a CD release without the DVD, this package has a different UPC. I don't know if I buy this. When I bought the video game Medieval II: Total War for the PC it came with 2 DVD discs of the History Channel's Crescent and the Cross. So you're saying I could use the UPC for the video game and put these DVDs in? | | | "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" - Douglas Bader
