With deluxe albums it really depends what you define as a deluxe album.

I'd like to hear how you would want deluxe albums to be done. You have release which allows you to sell the album again with additional tracks etc.

Currently, if we want to re release an album we have to wait for the original album to end its sales (which is over 1.5 years). Deluxe albums are often released in the same year. So thats one reason for deluxe albums (to release them at the same time as the current album).

Also, in reality, deluxe album sales count toward the origional album sales. So in game it would we super cool if releasing a deluxe album would link up with the origiona album and the sales and chart performance would be combined.

Deluxe albums are released after a few months while reissue is like a year?. A recent example of an reissue is Dua Lipa's Future Nostalgia: The Moonlight Edition. It was a reissue of Future Nostalgia which was released late 2019. Ariana just recently released a deluxe edition of positions after 4 months. But deluxe albums can be released at the same time of the original album. Or deluxe albums could be a way to increase physical sales by limiting it to physical editions and not adding it to streaming.

I think it would be a great addition. Also I think it would be cool if we can bonus tracks to albums.

Really? I noticed that my albums are off sale after 8 months but my singles last for 1 whole year before going off-sale.

In the next release it will be around 16 months. I'll monitor this however as data space is limited.
