I experimented, and while still legible at 400 wide, qulaity suffers. I'd
have to rescan them all to achieve the minification satisfactorily, so I'll
leave them alone for now.

Maybe. I used "album" as referring to a collection of songs, rather than
the medium of playback.

Probably not a bad idea. Needless redundancy.

Thanks, Jack. Your advice is much appreciated. Some time when (I have some
extra!) I'll get rescanning stuff and fix all that up.
