Sorting artist names

You can easily change the sort order for any artist. Just display the details screen for that artist, then change the "Sort by name". Changing the artist full name will not change the sort order; you must change the "Sort by name" on the artist screen. 

The CDDB database sometimes has some artists improperly sorted by first name.  CD Trustee simply reflects what is in the CDDB database. Fortunately, this is very easy to change by simply changing the "Sort by name" in CD Trustee. 

Be careful not to change band names to improperly sort by what you think is the last name of a person but is not. For example, "Pink Floyd" should sort under "P", not "F", since this is the name of the band and not the name of a person. The same holds true for "Jethro Tull", which should sort under "J". However, it really doesn't matter if it is right or wrong. All that matters is that you know which letter to look under the next time you want to find albums by that artist.
