I think we all agree that this is a bug.
Hopefully everyone also agrees that it in the browse menus should end
up under an artist named as the AA tag.
However, I do feel there is a bigger picture than this, this individual
bug report doesn't solve the complete VA/compilation complexity, it's
just one step in the right direction.

I just noticed that I have one of these in my own library and I've
tagged it with Musicbrainz tagger. Haven't noticed it before since I
also have normal albums by the main artist so I've been able to reach
it by browsing to the main artist.

I think most of us completely agree with this too, but it's a
management problem, as long as Logitech doesn't invest more development
resources on SBS and resources to maintain the bugzilla database, it's
going to be thid way. So unless that changes, bugs which can be worked
around by re-tagging isn't going to be prioritized.
If I get some time, I'll take a look at it to see if it's something
that's possible to provide simple patch for, so Logitech don't have to
spend the resources finding and testing it.
