I was under the impression that the "Album Artist" tag should ONLY be
used for compilations that have various artists and that it should be
populated with the value "Various Artists" for all the tracks on that
album (or whatever value you want, it just has to be the same value for
each track). For albums by a single artist, the "Album Artist" tag
should be blank and the artist should only be listed in the "Artist"
tag.

Is that not the correct use of the "Album Artist" tag? What does SS do
with the Album Artist tag?

Cheers.
