You've just leveraged it for something else.

I don’t know that this is the right place for this conversation, so if you want to
post on it further you might be better to open a separate thread on the topic.

But in short, might I suggest you use the "Album" tag to denote the track is from a movie soundtrack (instead of the "Artist" tag). If you are looking for a means to tie all movie soundtracks together (so you can have a Soundtracks ML SmartView or something),
thus making the album name alone insufficient, you can either:
  • put "Soundtrack" in the comments
  • or do like I do and append "[OST]" to the album name
Also, might I suggest you populate the “Album Artist” with something more accurate
(like “Various Artists”) thus giving you a common Album Artist value across all tracks of the given soundtrack.
