Michael - sorry I wasn't complaining - just responding to potential
pitfalls in the solution as Jim had written it.

I hardly use the web gui so hadn't noticed how it behaved. The missing
track artists on SBC, I'd picked up under 9633 and I'm very happy
there's now some progress.

Adding AlbumArtist into the SBC Now playing may be noticed by more
people that those suffering the missing track artists. The fact that the
web now playing, web pop-up, SB3 and SBC are inconsistent makes it
difficult to know which the 'correct' or expected case is.

Jim,

against my 3 cases

item 1) was partly a 'work-round' to get the correct information into
the SBC display given 9633. The fact that it preserves the nuances of
'featuring', etc. was a bonus

item 3) suits me as I have hundred of compilations and in the album
view (sorted by artist and year), its nice to have some control over the
sort order.

The only case for including AlbumArtist is if said artist is
deliberately not in TrackArtist (which I think is rare, but did see one
thread with someone doing that). I think that is likely to be very few
people.
