I'm constantly annoyed by the fact that the iPod only seems to show Artists by Track Artist and not Album Artist.

This means that all the Compilations I've bought adds yet more artists with only one track to their credit. Ideally, I'd like them classed by Album Artist, showing up under "Various Artists".

The only workaround I can see is to retag my compilations so that I put "Various Artists" into the Track Artist field.

And yes, I've tried the "sort by" trick, but this only changes the order of the artists, so all the one-hit-wonders are at the bottom of the list.

Gah.
