Hello, new guy here.  
I am really struggling with all this naming stuff. Can anyone help with a script that would produce the following results?  
for a single artist:  
/Phil Collins/Both Sides/Phil Collins - 01 - Both Sides of the Story.mp3  
and for a various artist:  
/Various Artists/The Best of 1980 - 1990, Volume 7/Black - 02 - Wonderful Life.mp3  
/Various Artists/The Best of 1980 - 1990, Volume 7/Fine Young Cannibals - 03 - She Drives Me Crazy.mp3

After looking at the posts in this thread, I might like to try adding the CD number, so I guess it would like something like this:  
/Various Artists/The Best of 1980 - 1990, Volume 7/CD1/Black - 02 - Wonderful Life.mp3

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
