iPod survey: how do you handle songs in several different albums...

[RogerThornhill]

If you have a song in a 'Best of' and the same song in its original album...do you just accept the duplicate? Unfortunately, i do.

Has anyone come up with a better way of doing things?

I do the same thing you do. I wish there was a way to add one single song to multiple albums for this very purpose. Oh well, who needs all that hard drive space anyway, right?

This is one of a few minor things which really bugs me about itunes. Instead we get a helpful grid layout....

I just have the song twice (or more).

If you really don't want to do this then one way around it is to make the 'Best Of' a playlist using the relevant songs from the other albums. You won't get the correct artwork of course if that matters to you.

Unfortunately Calculus i am one of those guys who gets bugged by the wrong artwork too

Same here. The only thing I do about it is uncheck the duplicate for shuffle. Big whoop. It would be great to find a better solution.
