    I agree. Storing alphabetically suits me best, although that needs further sub-indexing for acts that begin with 'The' .
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    I just discount 'The' in my listing: The Wonderstuff filed under 'W', The Beatles under 'B' etc. The only exception being 'The The'

    My local record shop does it rather strangely: David Bowie filed under 'D', Neil Young to be found under 'N' etc. Not that it matters much - as soon as I enter the shop my mind goes blank and I end up going through everything

    I do file my collection by genre: Classical; Jazz; Blues; Folk; Rock and Pop, and World.

    Within each group, performers are filed alphabetically by family name and any "The" in the name is ignored.

    Cataloguing of Classical music is further divided into size: concerto, sonata, symphony etc. alphabetically, and then under the name of the performers. If the work has been recorded more than once by a particular orchestra say, then it is further filed under conductor/leader and/or date of recording.

    May all sound a bit 'anal' but it works for me.

    That's the important bit

    Your collection is probably way bigger than mine and so would make sense. My pile consists of only about 500 records and 700 CDs, so alphabetical works fine. Unless I put something back in the wrong place, then I'm buggered One of my Melody Gardot CDs has gone walkabout, and I'm too lazy to go through all of the CDs.
