Here's just a small example of the daily pain I face when I use itunes:
I recently ripped both the mono and stereo box sets of 2009 Beatles remasters. These are all in a proper hierarchical file structure, properly tagged with musicbrainz picard yet iTunes insists on merging both versions of each album and I get something like this:
1. Taxman
1. Taxman
2. Eleanor Rigby
2. Eleanor Rigby
3. I'm Only Sleeping
3. I'm Only Sleeping
4. Love You To
4. Love You To
5. Here, There and Everywhere
5. Here, There and Everywhere
6. Yellow Submarine
6. Yellow Submarine
7. She Said She Said
7. She Said She Said
8. Good Day Sunshine
8. Good Day Sunshine
9. And Your Bird Can Sing
9. And Your Bird Can Sing
10. For No One
10. For No One
11. Doctor Robert
11. Doctor Robert
12. I Want to Tell You
13. Got to Get You into My Life
13. Got to Get You into My Life
14. Tomorrow Never Knows
14. Tomorrow Never Knows
edit: I had no idea about the 'grouping' tag. I'll have to give that a try, thanks.
another edit: okay 'grouping' is still useless if I choose to sort by album or album by year (preferred). I guess my only solution is to append (mono) and (stereo) to each album but I'm REALLY pissed I have to do this.
