Whats the Compilations view?
Compilations are collections of files, from the same or different albums, that have been put together on a CD. A typical example is a set of favorite songs that you burn on a CD to listen to in your car audio system. Compilations are special, because they are held together by a single bond: the media they are on. However, each of the tracks could actually be a part of some album as well. Hence, these tracks are normally accessible in the ‘by Album’ view. Simply put, you can think of compliations as ‘super albums’ that have been created by you. Compilations make it easier for you to locate which particular disc a song is on, when you regularly burn a lot of discs containing assorted tracks. Many people do this to save on hard-disc space, as CDs are much cheaper to use. Since compilations are on discs, you can track them just like Audio CDs using the loan manager. You can keep a tab on who a disc has been lent to, or from whom a disc has been borrowed.
