 <policy type="or" name="SLUB Policy for MKV/linear PCM, retrodigitized audio" license="CC-BY-SA-4.0+">
   <description>SLUB related policy to test that the audio file is suitable for archiving purposes.
-    This checks if a Matroska/linear PCM fulfills the needs for Audio retrodigitization:
-    - Container format is Matroska with error detection (CRC)
-    - Audio format is PCM (unfortunately it can not contain error detection) or FLAC (it has CRC by design)
+    This checks either 
+    - if a Matroska/linear PCM fulfills the needs for Audio retrodigitization:
+       - Container format is Matroska with error detection (CRC)
+       - Audio format is PCM (unfortunately it can not contain error detection) or FLAC (it has CRC by design)
+    - else a FLAC
+       - if a FLAC-file fulfills the needs for Audio retrodigitization:
+       - Container format is FLAC with error detection (CRC)
+       - Audio format is FLAC (it has CRC by design)
     This policy is based on:
     - Example MKV FFV1 digitization policy.xml
     - Video file is MKV + FFV1-Intra + PCM or FLAC with CRC32 everywhere.xml
