There are two "Merge" functions - one for normal merging (that's the one you used - with hotkey "M") and one called "Merge - keep others" (with hotkey "Alt-M") The second one will put as much data as it can in the first record (only one of each type of format), but when it's done, it will leave the originals rather than delete them as the normal Merge does. It's useful in various situations, including where you have multiple same formats you want to keep, as you do.
