I LIKE the new way, since I use the collection browser a lot to add tracks to
my dynamic playlist, and the tracks under Various Artists are sorted in no
order at all it seems. Sometimes it seems to be sorted by track name, but
that's completely illogical since the trackname starts in the MIDDLE of the
list item text.
If you do revert it, please fix the sorting under Various Artists. This way
it's totally unusable. It might also be a good idea to (instead of reverting
the change) filter out artists that only has one track in one compilation,
that would reduce a lot of clutter in the browser, but might be a tad bit
user unfriendly since it's inconsistent. (Although, the old way confused me
too, compilation tracks should ONLY be displayed under Various Artists in
that case.)
