Re: What Info Do You Want In JAM Labels?

Personally, I like the first-topic filenaming. The naming scheme is easier to identify individual eps than a solitary code number (but include the ep number by all means).

I'm not too interested in the cast because I rarely need to find all eps featuring a particular person. Perhaps you might need it for your academic JAM work...

Has anyone gone to the bother of producing a database or spreadsheet of JAM eps for power users?
