Just to add my two penneth to the Various Artist discussion. I've been
using 6.2b1 - 3981 for a while, but noticed the new "Random Mix"
functionality in the latest build so thought I would take a look.
I'd experimented with 3981 and worked out the best approach to tagging
my compilation/mix albums.
Setting ALBUMARTIST, ARTIST and TRACKARTIST resulted in mix albums
showing only as ALBUMARTIST when browsing by artist. Viewing the
details of track from "Playing Now" showed all the correct details,
including ARTIST.

Using 6.2b1 - 4577 both the ALBUMARTIST and the ARTIST now appear in
the list when browsing artist, something I specifically want to avoid.

Have experimented with the VA settings without luck, but my
understanding is the setting ALBUMARTIST makes these redundant anyway.
