You can do either.

If you tag the album names with the same name, and each album is ripped to a 
different folder, you will see each album listed.  You won't be able to tell 
them apart when browsing a list of albums, but you can see comments when you 
drill down into song info.

If you tag the album names with extra info in the album title, eg. "Dark Side 
Of The Moon Remastered", then you will see this when browsing albums.  However, 
adding extra stuff in album names is a bit messy - the extra names may be 
scrobbled, for example (although I think this information is removed if 
contained in parenthesis or square braces before scrobbling to Last.fm).

Another thing to consider when making your choice is that the comment field is 
searchable in Advanced Search, so you could find all "Remastered" albums, for 
example, but comments are not searchable through standard searches (i.e. you 
can't search via the Player UI).

I personally prefer to use comments, to keep album name lengths down for 
display, as I don't need to search for the extra info in comments that often.
