This is a brand/label of Ocean. See any of their packaging to verify it's "The Hit Squad".
* Tentatively add more C64 tape dumps
* Add some more UK C64 tapes
It's a start...
* Hewson (Rack IT) ➡️ Rack It
It looks like the publisher should take the form "Label" rather than "Company (Label)", judging by "The Hit Squad" (Ocean), "Mastertronic Added Dimension" (Mastertronic), etc., so let's be consistent about that.
Also, it's "Rack It", not "Rack IT". See e.g. the scan-in at https://archive.org/25/items/uta_Steel_1988_Hewson_Rack_IT_7197/uta_Steel_1988_Hewson_Rack_IT_7197_screenshot.jpg which shows the label name for both the copyright and address.
* Use labels consistently
Gremlin Graphics (GBH) ➡️ GBH
Grandslam (Bug Byte) ➡️ Bug Byte
CDS Software (Blue Ribbon) ➡️ Blue Ribbon
* Add tape

out of whatsnew: I have temporarily marked as unsupported the Atari ST disks since the majority does not seem
to load and/or being playable. per-game tests will be done soon, so to give the correct status to each entry.
for the record (and to acknowledge credits where it's due), most work came from the same external contributor
who cleaned up our a2600 list in the past, with some intervention by myself here and there...
