iTunes and classical "songs"

[Andrew Brown]

Does anyone know of a list where people try to make sense of  
classical music and iTunes (and the iPhone) ?

I have imported a number of cds into iTunes, and what iTunes calls  
"songs" have gone here there and everywhere, depending on what name  
the recording company decided to give the composer (assuming they  
bothered to mention him at all), whether the album had a name, how  
the tracks were numbered, and so on, each recording company having  
reinvented the wheel and come up with something wholly square.

Then I paid for a few hours of Wagner, which is in my iTunes Music  
folder but which is invisible to iTunes unless I select the "songs"  
on the disk and play them, and which does not sync down to my iPhone.

I suppose that what I'd like to do is rename the files on the disk,  
sort them into folders in a sensible way, and say to iTunes "right,  
use that and only that and nothing else".

Better still, I'd like to slip iTunes into my dead-and-useless  
programs folder and use something that knows the difference between  
music and "songs"... but I guess it's the only thing that cares to  
talk to an iPhone right now.
