SBS is nothing more than a music > server, and it can't handle that? insane. I can see your point of view; but I also take the attitude that each person has their way of doing things, and the big advantage with SBS is that it provides the flexibility of plugins... While it may not have a feature I like, at least I am not bound to the feature I don't like. I've essentially given myself the ability to browse by artists or albumartists. Thinking back to the topic of compilations tag, a thing I always hated in my brief stint of testing ITunes (and IPODS)out for library management was how it automatically made albums compilations just because one track had a slightly different artist (a guest artist). That just soured my one the whole compilation tag item. While I left ITunes very quickly, I also felt the Compilation Tag was a bit redundant. Using ALBUMARTIST = Various worked for me in that role. One thing I have liked about SBS is that I can separate myself from the misuse of TPE2 and have a separate ALBUMARTIST tag with my ultimate intention to actually fill in that BAND field with band members (i.e. each band member in a jazz band, etc). -- emalvick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emalvick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88072 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
