Product query generated on album pages leads to 0 results #67

Problem encountered with Tetris: The Grand Master and Else Heart.Break() despite launching the query from the album page directly.

Thank you for the report! It seems there are a few misbehaviors here. These albums represent products that don't yet have full product pages on vgmdb.net, and so they link to a search page. However, the search page has an extra &special=product parameter, which vgmdb.info does not support passing along. Without this parameter, vgmdb.net returns empty results, which are the same empty results that vgmdb.info shows.

Probably the best solution, and most in-line with the current behavior, is to not linkify this search link, to represent this album as not linked to a product page.
