Are you talking about searching or browsing ?

Are the sub collections stable ? If they are you can just create your
collection by creating a directory that just contains links/shortcuts to
the albums you want to include.

Because the SBS scanner auto detects files on the disk sometimes, for
example when you browse by music folder, it's hard to do this as a third
party plugin. I've done some experiments with Multi Library plugin but
if I remember correctly it only selected lossless instead of lossy
compressed track if both existed.

Are you sure your tags are exactly the same on the albums or do you
expect it to also detect albums that have almost the same title ?

Theoretically you can probably do it with Multi Library plugin but we
are talking about pretty advanced SQL queries. 

A solution that might work as long as you don't use the "Music Folder"
browse method is to edit the schema_optimize.sql script so it removes
the albums you don't want in the library. This is probably the easiest
way to accomplish the functionality but it only works as long as you
don't want to browse by "Music Folder". 
It might not work in a future version of SBS when auto scan of your
library is supported. So if you want something future proof this might
not be the best solution.
