I used to use the iTunes library file, but I found that it wasn't
honoring the iTunes artist and album sort fields, ironically.  Joe
Satriani would show up under "J" instead of "S" even though I set the
sort artist and sort album artist tags as "Satriani, Joe" in iTunes.

When I switched to folder syncing and running a utility to export the
playlists as m3u files (with path changing as my iTunes is on Mac but
the SlimServer is on my ReadyNAS), all the sorting just worked.

That was back in the 6.5 days, however.  I'm on 7.0.1 now but having
bothered to see if the iTunes sort fields are honored now because I
have a nice automated syncing process that works great.  Why change
what ain't broken, right?
