If Picard uses slashes (and they are literal slashes, not some internal
representation of something else) then you just need to enter a slash in
LMS's setting at My Music > Separator for Multiple Items in Tags.

I believe the ID3v2.4 spec says that you can have multiple values in a
field, separated by NULL characters. LMS will read these and treat them
the same as vorbis comments' multiple fields with the same name. Mp3tag
happens to write both ID3v2.3 and v2.4 tags in this manner if you use
its \\ separator convention, as is done with Flac and Ogg Vorbis files.
I'm not sure if any other taggers will do this, but Puddletag was
closely modeled after Mp3tag, so it may.

One thing to be careful (or aware) of when using both multiple values in
a field and multiple values in the corresponding SORT field, is that
there is no spec saying that the order of the individual components is
significant. Nonetheless, LMS users have reported success using Mp3tag
and its \\ convention for designating multiple values. From that you can
conclude that Mp3tag always writes the values of these fields in order
and that LMS reads them in order and matches up the individual SORT
values to the corresponding values in the other tags.
