[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 275942, member: 49539"] FWIW, many other media solutions have similar weaknesses. As a classical music fan, I am particularly anxious to have composer tags. Meanwhile, I have settled on the following compromise: I have tagged pop music "Firstname Lastname", so "Phil Collins" is filed under "P", not under "C". My main reason for doing this is that most pre-tagged MP3s and most entries in CMDB are tagged this way. With nearly 30k tracks in my collection, anything else would be a tremendous amount of work. The classical pieces are mostly tagged "Lastname, Firstname", so "Beethoven, Ludwig van" gets filed under "B". I make exceptions only in the "Album Artist" (BAND) tag for albums by various composers, but a single performer, e.g., Anna Netrebko's "Russian Album". [/QUOTE]
