I agree.

What we really need is a change in LMS where we can tell it what we want
displayed for Artist and AlbumArtist I.e. First value OR All values with
options for each field.

Multi values are really for indexing purposes and don’t necessarily lend
themselves for display purposes very well.

Then we have to consider what we want MAI to use for its Artist Bio
lookup.

Just for your interest this is an example of why I don’t want all values
shown for a Track Artist

ARTIST: Luther Grosvenor; Jess Roden; Dave Moore; Mike Kellie; Steve
Dolan; Pete Brown; Luther Grosvenor, Jess Roden, Dave Moore, Mike
Kellie, Steve Dolan, Pete Brown

The compilation CD it comes from - This is the Blues. Vol. 1 - lists the
artist as “Luther Grosvenor, Jess Roden, Dave Moore, Mike Kellie, Steve
Dolan, Pete Brown” but as I have solo albums by three of those
individuals I have split and multi valued the tag accordingly so that
the track gets indexed against each - which it does.

Value 1 = “Luther Grosvenor, Jess Roden, Dave Moore, Mike Kellie, Steve
Dolan, Pete Brown” - which is what I’d like to see in the queue and now
playing. 

I’m sure that’s how it used to be.

You can see that I definitely don’t need what amounts to a long repeated
list of the same names.
