 Description  « Hide

This is useful for artists with localized aliases.

Example:

artist name: 雪の足跡
artist name sort: 雪の足跡

english alias: Yukino Asiato
english alias sort: Asiato, Yukino

When english-locale Picard tags tracks by this artist, it would use the alias and alias sort name, and ignore the CJK name.

Adding sortnames to aliases is the exact reason I proposed MBS-1485, so this might be a duplicate of that (although what I suggested isn't limited to just sortnames).
