| 48 | + | GS1 prefix 0676217 is recorded here as inferred, not sourced. The inference rests on the barcodes themselves: all 21 releases MusicBrainz holds under the prefix carry 75 Ark catalogue numbers (75002 to 75053),[^mb-prefix] two of those barcodes are filed in the UPC Database under the company name NICHEMUSIC.COM INC.,[^upcdb-deltron][^upcdb-lovage] and this company owned that label.[^nmi-about] This review searched again for a source naming the licensee and found none: SEC EDGAR lists no filer under the name[^sec-edgar] and its full-text search returns no filing containing the prefix,[^sec-fts] a search of Inmar's published industry notifications of licensed GS1 company prefixes returned no document naming it, Open Food Facts holds no pack under the prefix, the USPTO record that would name the owner of the 75 ARK marks could not be read (the TSDR API now requires a key and the Justia mirror answers 403), the Wayback captures of nichemusic.com and 75ark.com state no barcode or GS1 information, and a web search for the bare digits returns only generic barcode explainers. GS1's own registries publish no licensee for a prefix. The prefix therefore stays in gs1_prefixes_inferred; a sourced append will move it to gs1_prefixes when a registry record, a filing or a company statement names its holder. | |
