Heck, adding the length of the album would also be good too. Suddenly,
the browser is crowded. ;)

Well, right now all an "album" is is a bunch of tracks with the same
artist and album name, right? So why not just tack on the year there
too? I don't imagine there are too many albums with tracks with
different years, and it wouldn't seem bad to just show the most recent
year in such a case.

Or is there another problem?
