That sounds good.  The alternative would seem to be to add " (disc X)" to 
the end of the ALBUM value for multi-disc recordings, which doesn't seem 
like a clean use of the fields to me.  An album that comes on several discs 
would show up as multiple albums when grouped/sorted by human-readable 
fields (ie excluding freedb ID etc).

I think the suggested format is better than the use of, say, DISKNUMBER 
(which adds, IMO, an explicit level of hierarchy to track info in the 
context of albums).  Or has this been discussed before and I've missed it 
(I subscribed to this list mid-October so that's quite likely)?

Cheers,
Steve
