Single Track album known
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="item track">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Single track, album unknown:

<span class="haudio">
     <span class="item track">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Album:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Album with a couple of tracks, simple example:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
     <span class="item track">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="item track">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="item track">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
</span>

Album with a couple of tracks, more detailed:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
     <span class="item"><span class="track">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
     <span class="item"><span class="track">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
     <span class="item"><span class="track">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
</span>

...

As I said in one of my previous messages I am a supporter of using *FN*
as it suits the original design intention that when creating the hAudio
uF we should re-use existing microformats where possible If none can not
be found then we propose another,

...

Single Track album known
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="item fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Single track, album unknown:

<span class="haudio">
     <span class="item fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Album:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
</span>

Album with a couple of tracks, simple example:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
     <span class="item fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="item fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
     <span class="item fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</span>
</span>

Album with a couple of tracks, more detailed:
<span class="haudio">
     <span class="album">Best Before 1984</span>
     <span class="contributor">Crass</span>
     <span class="item"><span class="fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
     <span class="item"><span class="fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
     <span class="item"><span class="fn">Nagasaki Nightmare</ 
span> – <abbr class="duration" title="P268T">4:46</abbr></span>
</span>

Pros:
 NO more New Microformats other than *album* and those already
discovered, and we get to drop audio-title as its meaning is a grey area
to begin with.

Cons:
 Is it easy to understand that an Item within hAudio is a track? (I
think it is)
Should we create yet another microformat "track"? when re-using "item"
seems to suit our purpose?


Comments?

Thanks

Martin
