Rename The Complete U2 album collection

Why not just select all the tracks, Command-I and do a multi-edit?

Rename The Complete U2 album collection
Authored by: maczac on Jan 05, '05 12:31:09PM

This won't work, as it will wipe out the individual album names too.

"The Complete U2 - Rattle and Hum"
"The Complete U2 - Under a Blood Red Sky"

If you get info on these two songs in iTunes the album name will come up blank.

Instead, take about 5-10 minutes, and with your U2 box set in a smart playlist: 1) select them all and enter into the Grouping section "The Complete U2" The grouping tag was not used for any of the songs in the collection. 2) Then sort the list by album, and select each album grouping and delete the "The Complete U2 - " from the beginning of each album name. BE CAUTIOUS: there are several remix albums in the collection, and you could get fooled into deleting that portion. So if in the info window the album name comes up blank, then you have made a selection that IS NOT all the same album name. Cancel out and carefully look at the complete album name and start again.
