No you don't.  Maybe you misread what I was saying.

What are you on about?  This has nothing to do with standards.  And I am not 
saying that having an AA tag on a comp is incorrect - far from it, I do that 
myself in a few cases.

You cannot have an album reported in SBS as a compilation album with an album 
artist tag without setting both a compilation tag and an album artist tag.

Unless you are hacking the code/database content???

Irrelevant.

SBS does support AA tags on compilations.

SBS has as much right or authority to handle tags as any other app.  If you see 
other apps as having more authority, then how much more popular does SBS have 
to become before you seeing it having more authority?  All irrelevant anyway.  
I am saying what SBS currently does - what a user must do if they want 
compilations.
