iTunes suxor: song won’t appear in album
So I could rant against iTunes a whole heap.
I have learned to tickle and carefully tip toe around iTunes but someones I just give up and scream.
Why, or why won’t iTunes put that last damn track into the album stack with the rest of the damn album. It is in the same folder based on album name, but it just won’t appear in the same album.
I just can’t see any difference that iTunes should/could/ought to care about.
That one last track just won’t jump into the album proper !
Sometimes I need to change something in both album’s meta data to force all of the tracks to be re-written, and it might, sometimes, if you are lucky – work 😦
