What doesn't sort properly for you is adequate for the majority already, otherwise there would have been a lot more noise by now. There may not be a fault, just a different way that you want it to work. A lot of rippers won't set any ALBUMARTIST or BAND tag, and thus sorting will be by ARTIST tag. This will be the majority of users. There may be some people that have badly sorted artists, but I daresay the majority don't bother with any sorting at all. Most probably rip their albums and inherit whatever tags have been defined in freedb, etc. That probably means they have inconsistencies, spelling mistakes, etc. They certainly won't have any specific ARTISTSORT tags to do proper sorting. I recently ripped three Cranberries albums, and got "The Cranberries", "Cranberries" and "Cranberries, The". How many people go into a record shop and look for "Phil Collins" albums under the P section? How many look for Phil Collins under P in SqueezeCenter? How many add an ARTISTSORT="Collins, Phil"?
