Smarter Handling of "Various Artists" Albums #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
On some albums, each track can have a different artist. Pymazon downloads the 
tracks of these albums into a new folder for each artist, because the default 
naming scheme is "${artist}/${album}/${tracknum} - ${title}" or similar.

Rather than making the user (remember to) temporarily change the file naming 
scheme for soundtracks and compilation albums, the program could use an 
"album_artist" field.  I do not know the Amazon AMZ file structure, but when 
you look at, for instance, the Benjamin Button Soundtrack, Amazon displays the 
artist for this album as "Various Artists," so I'm hoping there is a way to 
extract that info.

This issue has already been fixed in Trunk. You can get trunk (which is 
unstable) by doing a mercurial checkout. Otherwise, this feature will be 
available in the 1.0 release. Cheers!
