I wasn't sure which forum to put this in, but the music one seemed more specific to creativity or something along those lines.
Anyway, I'm sure most will think I'm being OCD here... and I am. haha. But I'm trying to organize my music just the way I like it. I've been using an iPod classic up until this point and all my settings in iTunes works great for that. However, I just got an iPhone and put all my music onto it and it's been a bit of an organizational nightmare. I've figured most of it out, but I can't figure out this one last thing.
So I'm old school and I like to actually buy physical copies of CD's. Say what you will, but I want them. I then copy them onto a drive and all those are great and organize easily.
From time to time, I like 1 song by an artist and that doesn't justify my buying a entire CD. So I buy that song. And I also have a couple of musician friends who have a couple of songs that they gave to me, and so on. So what I like to do is put all those songs so that they show up as being on the same album. "Random" or whatever I choose. Like a compilation. My problem, is within that album, the songs show up on my iPhone alphabetized by SONG title. I want them Alphabetized by ARTIST within the album. So if I'm looking through my music by "album" and I click on the album, I want those songs to be listed by artist in that folder.
I know it seems tedious, but I have so much music and this method of organization works best for me. What setting do I need to change in the info for this to occur? Is it possible?
Thanks!!
