Hi,

what is the current stance of MB towards playlists?

I have seen DJs and sites publishing playlists on their sites, most of 
the time as blog posts with a list of embedded online videos. [1,2,3,4]

Should these playlists be added to MusicBrainz?

I have not a clear idea about it. But here is some food for thought: if 
these playlists where accompanied by downloadable MP3 files we would 
consider them as releases. Is there a fundamental difference between 
linking MP3s and linking to videos? What about streaming-only releases? 
Aren't they a variant of playlist + embedded player?

Bye,
