LOL Peter!
Lorenzo, it's the perfect disc when you're making new friends. If they're Canadian, they have stories about where they were when those songs came out. If they're American, they usually express disbelief that the bands are Canadian. Either way, it gets toes tapping and conversation flowing.
I wonder if MuchMusic will ever do a retrospective on Martha and the Muffins?

And let's not overlook Humphrey and the Dumptrucks (Saskatchewan-based, but they had a big hit single, whose title I'd have to Google.)

Amie - You can always override the settings in the Media Center by right clicking on the album and selecting (I believe) "Find album info". This will open up a search dialogue box. You can then either select the proper disc from a list or search until you find it. I have not ad the problem that you've encountered, but often, when I download albums off the internet, the metadata isn't totally intact, so the media center has trouble figuring out the disc info. This is a good quick fix.
Remember, though, that after you fix all of your albums, click the button (under tools, I think) that says "update album information" - this will refresh the media center listings, makign sure that the album information, including cover art, is correct.
Hope this helps.

Thanks a million, Cap'n! I couldn't figure out why I didn't have that setting and then I realized I was talking about plain ole Media Center and you were talking about Windows Media Center. Sure enough, I could do just what you said in WMC and I'm back in the game. I never would have figured that out - thanks a bunch. What a friendly, helpful bunch of people around here . . .

My pleasure, Amie. For all you guys have done for me, it's little trouble to pipe up when I have some "know how."
