Radish can you explain how that works a bit better, I use dbpoweramp and have made it a bit more simple just because I didn't fully understand how to use the above stuff. I would like to automate it a bit more. Mine works fine but I have to edit various artist albums on the fly before the rip. I do have to have Album Artist tag.
