Yes, good suggestion rregent

Actually, Firefly and the Soundbridge is even neater than you suggest. The Beatles is listed amongst the Bs but the group name still appears as ‘The Beatles’. Similarly, ‘The Beach Boys’ is filed with the Bs, ‘The Carpenters’ with the Cs, etc.

I think it’s important that this methodology applies only to artists and not, for example, albums. Logically, I think it makes sense for ‘A Night At The Opera’ to be filed with the As rather than the Ns, etc.

Ah, you’re right. I forgot that the Roku displays ‘The’ in front of the name but sorts as if it did not. And yes, I think you would only want this treatment for artists – not songs or albums.
