Make long song, album, and artist titles more aesthetically-pleasing #67

Right now, they cut off. They would look better if the width of the title was about consistent even if it is taller.

As an example, the title appears:

Eternal Rain - remastered
2017

It would look better as:

Eternal Rain -
Remastered 2017

Better yet, if we want to get really fancy and complicated, we could intelligently remove the hyphen if we know it is on a line break:

Eternal Rain
(Remastered 2017)

Could be an anti-feature though: the verbatim title could help people find songs and we'd need to add a lot of parsing rules for special kinds of songs, as much as stores try to standardise titles.
