Apple should sort out iTunes sorting
Posted Mar 31, 2007 at 09:38 PM
As I wrote last week, I went through the trouble of specifying Sort Artist values in iTunes, and subsequently did the same for Sort Album. Doing this has made using iTunes much more enjoyable for me, since I now know right where to find what I’m looking for.
And then I synced. As it turns out, there are inconsistencies here between iTunes, my iPod and my new Apple TV.
- In iTunes, everything is working wonderfully.
- On the iPod, browsing Artists respects sort field values, but browsing by Albums does not.
- On the Apple TV, sort field values are ignored when browsing by Artists or Albums.
This is my experience on my 80GB iPod Video. In the case of my Apple TV, I’m streaming my iTunes Library — not syncing it — since my iTunes library is larger than Apple TV’s capacity.
Come on, Apple — you can do better than that…
