really? b/c i do exactly that, and works great for me. show me the standards body that agrees with you, where it says setting an AA tag on a comp is "incorrect." conversely, i can show you several apps and tagging sources, like gracenote, amg, itunes, wmp, winamp, etc that set an AA tag on everything, comp or not. thats authority in practice at the very least. just b/c SBS doesn't want AA tags for comps doesn't mean SBS is right or an authority by which things can be said to be correct or incorrect.
