Well, here I am again with a few questions about yet another app.

I've imported several cds this afternoon. I had no problem changing the
import settings to what I wanted and now have questions about
organizing them. It appears that all the albums were imported into the
"music" playlist of the library. I have it set for grid view, which is
apparently the default, since I don't remember changing anything there.
I was able to start an album playing by finding it in the scroll area
that has the grid view of all my album titles, pressing vo space on it
to select the album title and then pressing space to start the playing.
Repeated presses of space pause and play the album just as one would
expect. Odd that there is no stop button. Anyway, with the album
paused, I moved to another album title. Selecting it with vo space and
pressing space to play on that one does not switch to the new album. It
just resumes play of the original song off of the first album I
selected. What am I missing here? 

Also, now that I have this bunch of albums all in one giant music
library grid, which is going to get quite large and unwieldy once I
have put a large cd collection in there, is there a way to subdivide
this into genres and possibly collect all cds by one artist together
into a group within a genre? I note that the genre of all my cds thus
far imported is noted, so it seems like there should be a way to get
the system to do some of the heavy lifting here. 

I really appreciate all the help I've been getting lately, and again
thank whomever for help in advance. I guess I should add that this is
the latest Itunes version.
