Hello,
Sorry for my English, it's not my native language.

Are there any rules or standards of tagging 2 CD's or Various Artists' releases? I am wondering where shall I put info like this: CD 1/2 or CD 2/4 and then how should tags with various artists look? Artist: Various Artists; Title: Artist1/Title1 or... how?
Any suggestions will be welcome. Thanks.

That depends on the software you use for managing your digital music collection.

E.g. in iTunes you have fields for entering disc number and disc count.

The songs on a various artist CD are tagged as individual songs. The only thing in common between the songs will be the Album name and cover art, which is specified for each track.

If you want all files on a various artist CD stored in the same folder, check the Compilation check mark.

Other software have different solutions.
