One thing to clarify, as you don't mention what the type of files you're
talking about. Hopefully this won't confuse the matter further, but I
want to make sure we're talking about the same thing.

There are two ways to specify multiple individual artists in a file's
tagging. You can list all of the artists in a single field, separated
by a designated delimiter.

ARTIST=John Abercrombie;Dave Holland;Jack DeJohnette

This is required in file formats that don't permit multiple fields with
the same name, but it can work with any tagging format. In this example,
if the server is configured to use a semicolon as a delimiter, it will
then separate the individual artists.

FLAC and Ogg Vorbis and some other file types permit multiple fields
having the same name. In these file formats it's not necessary to use
the delimiter.

ARTIST=John Abercrombie
ARTIST=Dave Holland
ARTIST=Jack DeJohnette

These two methods are functionally equivalent. What we've been talking
about previously is something else. The value of this ARTIST field

ARTIST=John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette

would be the literal string 'John Abercrombie, Dave Holland, Jack
DeJohnette' and you would then have an artist that looks exactly like
this.
