Description Philip Meyer 2006-08-11 01:42:52 UTC

I have quite a few songs by artists that are not associated with albums.
These include one-off songs that I have ripped from an album
but then removed the track number and album tags as I don't like the rest of the music on the album.

These artists currently appear in the browse views with a "No Album".

I was thinking that it may be nice to have a separate browse method (eg. "Browse Singles")
where only songs are listed that are not associated with an album and don't have a track number).
This Browse Singles display could have different sort/heirarchy view methods, such as
[Artist | Genre | Year ].

Then (perhaps as an option), don't include artists in the Browse Artists list if the
artist only has songs that are "No Album".  Could also remove "No Album" from the Browse Album list.

Adding another top-level item seems like it would confuse most users.  If there is much interest in this feature, users can vote for this or otherwise add constructive comments.
