Firstly, apologies for not replying to your earlier response to me, which I somehow missed. The subsequent discussion on this thread has moved things forward, and I am happy to go with that.

How, logically, do you envisage the implementation of "album set" (I prefer this more generic name)? Would it be a container that could contain one or more album containers? If I understand things correctly, it could have its own art, distinct from the art of the individual albums.

Part of the implementation logic would, obviously be how the "album set" appears in the browse list. Would there be separate entries for albums and (where applicable) album sets, or would the album set container take the place of the individual album containers in the browse list? In the latter case, selecting the album set would presumably (if the selection includes more than one album at that point) include an album entry in the browse list that is then generated. This approach, though it does require more selection steps, does seem to be more in line with MinimServer's general way of doing things.
