Bad idea, completely disagree.
Code:
TTITLEN:There must be one of these for each track in the CD. The track
number should be substituted for the "N", starting with 0. This field
should contain the title of the Nth track on the CD. If the disc is a
sampler and there are different artists for the track titles, the
track artist and the track title (in that order) should be separated
by a "/" with a single space on either side to separate it from the text.
The proper way would be to return all track titles as " / %title", forcing the artist to always be null. It sounds like you are just returning "%title" now, so if %title happens to be something like "Happy / Sally", it splits it according to the file specificatoin. If you returned it as " / Happy / Sally", it should split out to a null artist and a "Happy / Sally" title.
That's my understanding of the issue without seeing the freedb code you're using.
