This has really been done to death and must bite a lot of people who
come to SB with a lot of tags populated. If you buy SB and then start
to do your tags, you probably (lucky you) don't realise what a
nightmare it can be.

I had a Netgear MP101 and used JRiver Media Center to do my tags and
everything was well sorted. Worked with WMP too. Everything appeared
where I expected.

When I bought SB I had to look again at my tags as SB did some things
that I didn't expect. Basically logic that I didn't need.

Now I've redone my tags for SB but if you read the forums it was a bit
of a battle sorting out what I needed to do. AND STILL IS!

It was one of my reasons for moving from lossless WMA - they were
treated differently to mp3.

Recently I got a Massive Attack album on mp4 (my only album in that
format) and it appeared in Various Artists. AA was set to Massive
Attack, but one of the tracks had artist=EBTG. I wanted it under
Massive Attack, Logitech had other ideas. Sorted now, but it was hassle
again...

On the whole I'm very happy with the SB solution and have a few of
them. But I think this is an area of the whole scanner logic that I'd
love to be able to turn off. Let me sort it by tagging - seems to be
what other programs do.
