I know.

However, I still maintain that my (for OSC4) on Mei was reasonable, since the song played differently. If the first half was 200 bpm like in IIDX I'd have left that off, but I felt the feel was sufficiently different to warrant that.

On a similar note, all the songs in the first VJAMix have their original titles, except Beyond the Earth which is Beyond the Earth (for VJAMix). This is because I used a different cut than the IIDX/Pop'n version, which uses different material. The cut was made specifically for VJAMix and included material not present in the usual cut of the song, therefore I felt the subtitle was again warranted. In this case I am going by examples such as "L'amour et la liberte (DDR version)" where the song was rearranged.

Otherwise, I agree. I've been using the CD title as such since I started, other than (again) in VJAMix, where if we didn't use per-author ones all the files would just say "Beatmania IIDX". To be honest, I don't think step authors necessarily get enough credit in the current conventions, but that's what I go by for competitions since it's what people expect.

Are ITG entries meant to have CD titles?
