While I understand you, I oppose to it on principle. The tags are
there, they should be used as defined and be used sensible.

Problem is the long haul. Ripping and tagging a collection isn't fun.
So if next year there is something better than SS you are stuck.

Personally I feel more to separate the tags from the music files. Stuff
everything into a database and you can link everything to everything. So
the "tag" for the Andante could contain a link to the Presto etc.

But I understand slimdevices just as well. There are only a few
classical listeners. And since SS is opensource, we should fix it
ourselves... (which in theory we could)
