Scott... this is fantastic! Thank you for proving me wrong! :)

I think this is our front-runner for replacing audio-title and
album-title. Finally! It re-uses FN without being ambiguous about the
difference between a single audio recording and an album. We
simultaneously remove the need for audio-title. Does this also work for
the Suda-nator (Brian Suda)?

Martin, can you post some markup for the same 5 examples above using
your proposal? We'll weigh the pros/cons for Scott's proposal and your
proposal... I'm dropping my proposal in preference of Scott's.
