So here's what I did...
I set up a Virtual Handheld called "MP3 CD Burn" that I wanted to use when burning MP3 CDs to listen to in the car. I tried to set its conversion to MP3, but with that particular build, MC couldn't download the MP3 encoder, so I wound up setting it to WMA just so I could burn this particular CD.
So anyway, I dragged a bunch of albums to the "handheld". Included were two AC/DC albums, Who Made Who, and Back In Black.
Everything with the handheld seemed to go fine (although I'm at work right now and can't check to make sure - but I will when I get home).
I then told MC to burn a CD, chose Data CD, gave it a name, checked Close Disc, etc. Then I dragged the files from the "handheld" to the CD. I then told MC to burn the CD. I chose an album naming scheme of Artist\Album and a file naming scheme of Track # - Name
The resulting CD is a mess. Well, more accurately, the AC/DC albums are a mess. First of all, the files are all over the place, not just in their proper folders. And then secondly, almost all of the files are just the wrong name. The file itself is the proper file, with all the correct tag data, but the filename is wrong.
The resulting structure is this:

Any ideas what happened? I noticed something similar when I tried to burn an MP3 CD (back when I could actually convert to MP3). Only that time it was a Rammstein album. I don't have the CD here ATM, or I'd post a detailed list of what happened. I can tell you that for that CD, I didn't do the "handheld" step as I did with this one. It was a straight shot from my library to a data CD, doing an MP3 conversion. All of the files I've mentioned above (and for Rammstein) are APL files that are all tagged and play properly. And all of my files follow the Artist - Name convention.
