This looks good.
However, this raises another question for me:
What is the difference between <typeOfResource> and
<physicalDescription><form>? In the above example, both elements would
have the same value; right? So then shouldn't the former be simply
"sound"?
I partly ask for some concrete reasons, such as what <typeOfResource>
value would you assign for a public speech (not a recording, but the
performance)? Likewise, a performed play, or a lecture?
