Does it really over-ride the AA tag in terms of browsing, though? Back at one point while messing with the comp tag, if I had a comp tag + AA (AA not equal to VA) the album would show up both under the AA and under the VA (Compilations) menu... i.e. it seemed they were given equal browsing. That could have changed though (my experience was back at 7.3 days). As for the OP... I think you need to mess around a bit with what you have and test it out to make sense. THere is really no one right way to tag your music, just what's right for you. Given your examples, you might mess around with a small library of just your Aphex Twin related music and a few other compilation type albums and set up the tags until you find what you like and go from there. Do check out those links in Mr. Sinatra's post because there are possible quirks that can occur due to the Compilation and Various Artists logic that you might as well be aware of. That's where the earlier suggestion of leaving AA blank for compilations maybe the better method, although I personally don't do that. -- emalvick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emalvick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93812 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
