Who uses the 'Grouping' tag anyway?
The "grouping" tag (corresponding to the ID3 tag "Content group description") is meant primarily to segregate tracks within an album, mostly useful for Classical tracks (eg: Brandenberg Concerti, six pieces, all "grouping'ed" under "Brandenberg Concerti"--or search the iTMS for Christophe Rousset Bach Harpsichord Works to get a good gander at an example). If you use "Grouping" for your own purposes, you MAY miss out on future iTunes GUI enhancements. Note that the iTMS displays "Grouping" tracks under their own header, which does not yet happen in the actual iTunes app.
Who uses the 'Grouping' tag anyway?
I use Grouping as an extra Comments field. Using allmusic.com, I added more specific genre information. For instance, Marvin Gaye's general genre is R&B/Soul, but in Grouping I have "Soul, Motown, Urban, Smooth Soul, Blaxploitation, Quiet Storm." This allows me to make really specific smart playlists easily. Obviously, it took a lot of time to input all this info, but I just did it a little at a time. |
