I've been reripping all my music recently, and I've decided on roughly
the following scheme for my classical collection:
    
-  ALBUM Title of the album.  Not necessarily related to the
  individual pieces in any meaningful way.
-  TITLE Title of the piece
-  PART  Name of the individual movement.  (optional)
-  OPUS  Opus number (optional)
-  ARTIST Soloist (optional)
-  CONDUCTOR Uh, Conductor (optional)
-  ENSEMBLE  Orchestra (optional)
-  GENRE, YEAR, LABEL, COMPOSER, TRACKNUMBER, etc, are all fairly
  obvious.
  

This means that the title of any individual piece is actually spread
between two components, the TITLE, and PART (and, if you care, the
OPUS).  I'm thinking of hacking on SlimServer a bit so that the titles
of any tracks that it displays are actually computed as "TITLE: PART"
if PART exists (potentially, TITLE Opus OPUS: PART) if both OPUS and
PART exist.

In the above list, only ALBUM, TITLE, and TRACKNUMBER are really
obligatory.

For MP3 files, there's a rough mapping:
    
-  ALBUM => TALB
-  TITLE => TIT2
-  PART  => TIT3
-  LABEL => TPUB
  
Most of the others are fairly obvious.

Frankly, in MP3, I'd love to use the TIT1 track for the "work" name,
which is really what it seems to be implying, but I'm not sure if
anybody actually supports that at all.
