Not really.. Currently, each song has a single genre string. Albums also
have a single genre string, which is essentially the first album track with
a genre defined.

Ideally I guess the album should have a list of genres, and that would be
quite easy to implement.

Im not sure if multiple genres supported for songs in slimserver ? I suspect
they probably are these days, in which case I should probably pull that in
too..

Incidentally, there's also a setting to 'simplify genres' in moose.. This works
by having a big list of fairly standard genres and matching the song's genre
to the list. So if a song has the genre '373635 rock - special purchase',
the simplify genre option will alter this to be just rock internally in moose.
I've found auto-tagging using amazon and places often fills the genre tags
with bumpf, so this attempts to sort that problem out..
