Is it an idea to somehow indicate that something is a collector? I find it interesting if I can sort by that… and for example with artists, it is nicer if under “CD” only their own CDs can be found and not also the compilation CDs, but that the collectors are a separate series. .

That would immediately be a nice solution to the problem that Jilles and I encountered: If you choose to specify all artists who play along for each record, then you will not get a nice selection. Example to make this crooked Dutch a bit clearer :-)
Imagine with Beatles records you not only mention Beatles as the artist, but also Paul McCartney and John Lennon. If you then want to make a selection of Lennon's solo records, that is not possible. You get everything from The Beatles.

In essence, you could solve it if - just like with comics - you could place the items in a "main sequence". For the artist John Lennen you choose his solo work and if you want to see everything you choose “all items”.
I would like to know which project each artist has contributed to.

Great solution Jilles. You also keep illegal publications outside the main series, as well as compilation albums by the artist himself.

Of course I also find it very interesting which record artists all play along and if possible through a main series fine. But just adding main sequence is not enough. When I dive into my collection I can choose either artist or carrier or (when it comes to comics) series. The ideal is that I first choose Gaston, for example, and that I can then also choose from the series.
In terms of music, it is a disaster without a second selection option. There are so many artists of which I only have a few records. Or you have to include the name of the artist in the title of the series. That will then become an even longer list.
