This is kind of a strange request and it may not be
reasonable, but here is the idea:
Normally songs are grouped in MyMusic by artist then
album. This is great for most albums, but not for
compilations or movie soundtracks where the songs on
the album might have different artists. It would be
nice to have something like this: when you are editing
song info (id3 info) you could check a radio button
next to the aspect by which you want that song grouped
with other songs. The default would be artist.
Alternatively you could choose just "album" and the
album would appear in the MyMusic list with the songs
in it (one level deep). Or you could choose "comment"
or "genre". (For example, I have a lot of single
tracks that aren't part of an album that I would like
to group as "miscellaneous ambient techno" for instance).
An extension of the radio-button interface is to have a
growing number of columns of radio-button groups next
to the track id3 info fields, that would allow you to
have any number of nested groupings.
Again, this is a complex idea and may not be
reasonable, but it might be interesting to someone?
Thanks

I think this may be better put down as simply being able to
group or sort by any tagging, as a function of the playlist
listing/view. There are other similar feature requests,
which may have a similar solution and therefore be all hit
at once.
