What if I have more than one barcode for my album?

What if I have more than one barcode for my album?

We recommend using a unique barcode for each configuration of the album being sold (i.e. CD, Vinyl, Cassette). If you are registering more than one barcode for an album, please send a merge request to music.bbmerges@luminatedata.com to ensure these barcodes are linked together for the same album. When sending this merge request please include the following information:

Artist
Title
Barcodes
Release Date
Track Count
note any differences across each product (i.e bundled merchandise, bonus tracks, etc.)
