Does anyone use the Compilation Rollup option?

We have moved to the common method of using the Album Artist tag.

As you note, some ripping applications, including iTunes, don't set the album artist to "Various Artists." But iTunes does set the MP3 tag TCMP to 1 (see http://id3.org/iTunes%20Compilation%20Flag).  It's set in all of my compilation albums, of which I have more than 50 with over 1,100 tracks between them.

Apple's TCMP flag is a much better mechanism as it works even when the album artist is set to "varios artistas," "artistes variés," "Verskeie Kunstenaars," "多位艺术家," etc. (Errors in translation are Google's fault.)

So if TCMP is present and is equal to 1 <OR> Album Artist is "Various Artists" (case insensitive, of course), then you've identified a compilation.  That minor logic change would make things better for many users.  Later on, you could add various language translations of "various artists" if you so chose.
