you know I think examples [7] and [8] show us that *album* is probably
not a good class name either or the markup needs to be changed to
something like:

...

[9] same as [8] but re-using hAudio

<div class="haudio">
   <span class="album">The Best of SKA</span>
</div>
<div class="haudio">
    <span class="track">
     <span class="fn">On My Radio</span> 
       </span>
        by <span class="contributor">Selecter</span> - 
     Taken from <span class="album">Too Much Pressure</span>
</div>
<div class="haudio">
    <span class="track">
     <span class="fn">Mirror in the Bathroom</span>
      </span>
       by <span class="contributor">The Beat</span> - 
     Taken from <span class="album">I Just Can't Stop It</span>
<div class="haudio">
   <span class="track">
     <span class="fn">My Girl</span> 
     </span>
      by <span class="contributor">Madness</span> - 
      Taken from <span class="album">One Step Beyond</span>
</div>

...

which seems a bit involved to me but makes a little more sense


Thanks
