Well, like I showed in my example, I'm using a separator within one tag
for all of my "multiple" items.  I decided to go that route (at least
for the the last year or so), more for backwards compatability with MP3
players (keeping a separate copy of all my FLAC files in MP3 form), so
that I can at least GET all the data on there.

Which is why I also decided to use the BAND tag instead of something
else like ARTISTSORT, since it seems that the BAND tag gets more
support right now on the MP3 side of things, and I'd rather not have to
manage two sets of tags.

SO . . . all that out of the way, thought I'd chime in on what I've
found.

Tagging as follows seems to give me what I want (with one exception,
mentioned in a moment).

ALBUM=Duets
YEAR=1994
TITLE=I've Got You Under My Skin
ARTIST=Frank Sinatra;Bono
ARTISTSORT=Sinatra, Frank;Bono
BAND=Frank Sinatra

The behaviour I'm getting is that the album is showing up under S,
under "Frank Sinatra", but listing both artists when playing the songs
or listing the tracks.

Which is exactly what I wanted.

The one thing that I didn't expect, is that "Duets" is ALSO showing up
under "Various Artists".  Which is NOT what I was looking for. 
Although technically it IS a "Various Artists" album, I don't think
anyone would really categorize it that way.

So what I'm thinking is, is using the COMPILATION tag to see if I can
somehow get around that, but, I'm not very familiar with the tag, and
it seems like what few posts I can find on it, it seems to cause all
sorts of wacky problems.

So, does anyone else have any advice on this one?
