Ok, I've just done a bit of testing with 7.6 and Mp3 files with ID3v2.3
tags.

I don't believe there's any problem with SBS using the item separator.
You can easily verify this by drilling down into that album's track
listing to the track info level. For track #4 you should see:

Album Artist: Dave Stewart
Track Artist: Dave Stewart, Martina McBride

This would verifies that SBS is using the separator correctly.

To make a long story short, what you're seeing are some of the many
title formatting bugs that remain in 7.6. In an album's track listings
I see only the album artist and none of the track artists. If left
unfixed, it's a fairly major step backwards from 7.5.x and earlier
versions.

If you want to see something particularly bad, go to Settings >
Interface and set Title Format to just TITLE (which, I believe, is the
default). Then do a search. You'll see track results presented with
absolutely no artist or album information. In 7.5 and earlier versions
there was some intelligence that added artist and album if they weren't
already part of the title format.

These problems are independent of whether the files are Mp3 using
separators, or Flac files using multiple vorbis comment fields.
