The difference with having COMPILATION=0 is that you will have artist
contributors instead of track artist contributors.
i.e. if you view the song details for a song on a compilation album, you will
see something like:
Album: 28 Days Later Soundtrack
Album Artist: Various Artists
Artist: John Murphy
Genre: Dance
Year: 2003
If you view the song details for a song with guest performers on an album with
an album artist:
Album: Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea
Album Artist: PJ Harvey
Track Artist: Thom Yorke, PJ Harvey
Genre: Alternative
Year: 2000
Adding COMPILATION=0 to the above example means you get Artists instead of
Track Artists, like the first example.
The Browse Album list shows Artists and Album Artists, not Track Artists. It
seems that the Music Library setting "Group compilation albums together"
prevents artists from appearing if they only appear on compilation albums.
Personally, I think it's a bit weird - I think it would be easier to explain to
people if the presence of an album artist always caused Track Artists instead
of Artists, and the Music Library setting filtered in/out track artists.
