Use cases


1. If an artist started by releasing covers before they got known. How to find those on the artist page?

2. If an artist continues to do covers after they got known. But do not release them on record. How to find those on the artist page?


Example:

Artist: Amy Diamond

Real name: Amy Deasismont

Web name: amydiamond


Her first performance was actually on a TV were she performed Shakiras Underneath Your Clotes

This was released as a CD, a DVD and recorded on VCR. Thus they ended up on Youtube.


On her CDs there are some covers.


But she has continued to make covers of other persons work (as there are several game shows here in Sweden).

Some of those she has published on her Youtube account - amydiamond


So when searching for Amy Diamond, you will only get her recorded covers released on CD.

Amy Diamond


But you will not be able to find or even get an indication of her web covers (history, current).

Rehearsal: Amy Diamond Please, please, please


Simplest implementation would be to add field of official YouTube account to her profile.

From it you could then get a more complete view.

A more advanced implementation could list all registered web covers among covers.

Hi RogerL,


Thanks for your input.


We have some ideas about how we can further develop the web cover feature, and what you describe here is certainly one the things we had in mind!
