        Oh, oh, oh.  That makes a lot more sense.  [Mark that the second
        message I've replied to today where I misunderstood someone.]

        I've given some thought to multi-tagging genres. I've certainly
        done a few hundred artists that way, but have been reluctant
        to learn of some unintended consequence and my wife isn't happy
        with how much time I've spent tagging already (>20K tracks).

        Indeed.  The thing I'm always afraid of is feeling like I want
        to hear, say, some jazz and I miss seeing Jonas Hellborg or John
        McGlaughlin thing because I sub-categorized it poorly.  Using
        multi-tags would work.  OK, John Coltrane is 'jazz' with every
        not he ever played...but maybe Sonny Sharrock isn't.  

        ...but do you actually go through every piece by hand?  Aren't
        there Kronos Quartet albums, for example, that might need a
        half-dozen different tags - in addition to "Classical" - on a
        track-by-track basis?  I see my OCD kicking in.
