you are right of course should be 
<span class="amount" title="4.99">4 pounds, 99 pence</span>
or 
<span class="amount">4.99</span>

title has an unintended consequence here you are right.
this is the collection title.

you are the expert here. :)

maybe I'm just not being clear,

this is what I am trying to do

example,

<div class="collection title" id="a">My Stamp Book</div>

<span class="item">
<a class="include" href="#a"></a>
A stamp.
</span>

I'm thinking that all this markup isn't necessary to define a collection
maybe it will work with just the class includes, I personally don't know
that's why I ask all you guys.

kind of experimental and you are right for machines and people but not
so clear this is supposed to act like a track marker.

we were asked to design this microformat for a machine or machines.
Songbird is one.

change to this:

<span class="duration" title="3 minutes, 41 seconds">3:41</span>

music downloads or purchases do have all kids of notes, bit-rate,
file-size, duration, It maybe unnecessary? just trying to point prasers
to a useful part of a page

I don't agree. we have more than one contributor to an album Artists,
Publishers, Distributors, Management, p.r., songwriters, the list goes
on...

this says the contributor role is the Publisher?
