I have more than 8500 CDs in Tellico. Each physical CD is an entry. e.g.
All 18 CDs could have the same title, potentially a subtitle that could
help differentiate them, but on my side I chose to have a number of CDs
with a total of CDs. That way I can query and sort the way I want.

Using the tracks entires, I can search for a gloria of Byrd without
difficulty either. The serach is full text and extremely quick.

>Also in a music collection, there are anthologies of music which have

Well, I always think in tellico as collecting a physcial item: A book, a
score, a CD, a DVD, ... and even if there may be some limitations, the
way I can use tellico and adapt the data model at will is key, in
addition to the exterme performances I can get from it for searches.

And it's Free Software, so if you want something, you can always code
it.

Bruno.
