OK, I can understand why you'd want multiple genres and multiple
artists for a track, but why multiple titles?
Is this for, like
"The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" Cher ?
So it would show up under both if I recoded it as
"The Shoop Shoop Song;It's in His Kiss"
I'd personally keep the parentheses in that case. I use multiple titles
when a single track from a CD has more than one title. For example:
Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon - 01:
Speak To Me / Breathe
Brian Wilson - Smile - 05:
Old Master Painter / You Are My Sunshine
Green Day - Bullet In A Bible - 10:
King For A Day / Shout
Basically, anything which would be listed on a CD with a forward-slash
in it. Live albums have a few of these, when bands segue between two
songs but keep them as single tracks on the CD. I have several
soundtracks with multiple titles on some tracks (tends to be original
music rather than compilations of music released elsewhere). And some
studio albums just have more than one title on some tracks.
Obviously one could include the separating slash literally in the title
tag, but I prefer to keep the titles distinct (the ability to do this in
Vorbis tags made me really think about the semantics of one-versus-many
tags when I ripped everything). This is especially important given that
some titles seem to contain slashes as part of a single title (although
it's not always obvious how to tell that it's not multiple titles!).
I remember asking for multiple titles to be supported last year (as I
thought that lack of support was a bug). I believe the need for it
wasn't necessarily immediately understood, but the change was made
nonetheless (by Dean, I think). The responsiveness of SlimDevices
continues to impress!
Cheers,
Steve
