How do you tag and sort box collections?

MusicBrainz Picard

I keep them in separate folders and disambiguate using the release group disambiguation and the medium description. Taking the “Paranoid” 2009 UK release, this would give me these folders:

Black Sabbath/
    Black Sabbath - Paranoid (2009 album, GB)/
        CD 1: Original Album 1970/
        CD 2: Bonus Tracks/

I use the same logic for box sets, like Klaus Schulze’s Ultimate Edition, a 50-CD box set!

I may use unorthodox scripting and filenaming scripts, but if you’re interested, let me know.
