There is a huge difference between album artist and artist. Artist paths for Bonograph would be like: /music/Flat Duo Jets/Bonograph/01 Needles and Pins /music/Otis Ball/Bonograph/02 Laugh At Me /music/Charlie Chesterman and The Harmony Rockets/Bonograph/03 Baby, Don't Go That would be painful. This works better: /music/Sonny Bono - Bonograph/01 Flat Duo Jets - Needles and Pins /music/Sonny Bono - Bonograph/02 Otis Ball - Laugh At Me etc. AlbumArtist in this case is Sonny Bono (since it is a tribute to him, and if I was a record store, I would file it under Sonny Bono). > > btw. precisely because i would also hate to "scour" for files is why > all my files are diligently named > "album.track#.artist.trackname.ogg" > and put in to a FLAT directory. Manually paging through roughly 21,000 tracks is painful. At a growth rate of 300 or so tracks a month, that will only get worse. > > that way, i can scroll up and down in explorer and locate albums and > files very quickly.
