I do exactly the same thing for my Compilations within LMS/SbS for my
squeezeboxes. Only difference is that rather than leaving Album Artist
blank, I add ALBUM ARTIST for tribute compilation CDs so they show up
under the Artist listing.  For example, a Bob Dylan tribute compilation
I would add "Bob Dylan" as ALBUM ARTIST (even though Bob Dylan is *not*
on the album).  Otherwise, I leave ALBUM ARTIST blank for compilation
CDs.
