But some of the car USB players are so terrible. My 2012 Buick doesn't allow navigating by artist then by album. It's either top level artist or top level album. It also ignores the track numbers and plays songs in alphabetical order! It is completely useless.
A lot of truth to that; sometimes it takes a little work to figure how to "game" them by knowing how to your particular one handles tags. Mine (Toyota Entune) generally handles albums correctly, but if I want a custom list of songs that doesn't clutter things, I'll just retag them on the USB with an id3 editor, e.g. give them all the same "artist" and "album."
