@cstross@wandering.shop On a more serious note: This isn't the first EPG mixup. I've been seeing them for years, and not even on Amazon. I've never heard of telly programme episodes having ISBNs/EANs. IMDB certainly seems to use its own proprietary numbering rather than anything external. I wonder whether such a thing would help. I've seen several mixups where the blurb matches a movie/telly programme of the same name but a different year. Name matching seems a terrible way for the entertainment world to be doing things in the 21st century. @gregeganSF@mathstodon.xyz #ISBN #EAN #databases
