I've recently shifted featured artists from the track title to a semi-colon delim'd list in [Artist]. Unfortunately I've noticed that this significantly decreases the match rate on Last.fm since the entire [Artist] tag is passed, which doesn't match Last.fm formatting in the case of multiple artists.

Example (tracks that match in the Last.fm database have a "play" symbol, multi-artist tracks do not match):



Instead, could the Last.fm scrobbler send either the first artist in the [Artist] list or the [Album Artist (auto)] when len([Artist]) > 1? This would improve track matching, leading to better recommendations, custom radio, etc.
