Artist Sort Name
What about creating and using "Artist Sort Name" as a variable to rename music files?
So, instead of having the folder "The Beatles" I can have the folder "Beatles, The"

Yes, could do. I'm beginning to wonder if a <raw:tagname> token might be a good idea so any tag can be used.

I've noted that I can't use a tag as a variable for filename structure.
I.E. I can't use "Sort Artist" as a variable to sort artist with Last, First syntax like the following:
<group:Sort Artist,1>/<Sort Artist>/<album name>/<discnumber:nn>-<tracknumber:nn>-<track name>-<album name>-<album artist>

It would be useful to allow a <raw> token to solve this...

LOL, I think you suggested this twice? Hence my duplicated responses below, added when I merged the threads.

Any news about that?

Erm, unfortunately not yet, sorry... Want to clear a few more tasks out of the way in the next couple of weeks before implementing some of these ideas.
