it's not related to media type.

Hmmm, but why do all other json endpoints return the mediatype as the type property except for the album one ?
It doesn't seem very consistent to me but maybe I'm missing something very obvious :-)

Since PR#10573 the music database now will store a string as "strType" for album "Type", intended to be pulled from song tag Musicbrainz ReleaseType if present. There is also a separate strReleaseType that's really a boolean album/single and can work as a fallback if strType is null. I suppose JSON api maybe should be tweaked?
