"Peculiar; who, when asked by a friend what they've been listening to, says the Vienna Philharmonic? Surely it's the *composer* one listens to, as performed by an orchestra, etc." This is simply due to the fact that music tagging was originally developed for popular music rather than classical. In fact, what the "artist" field almost always means is the performer, not the composer. Who is the song "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by? Aerosmith or Diane Warren? Most people haven't heard of the writer of popular music pieces. This is consistent with tagging the artist as the performer. In my library I have both the composer and conductor tagged also, but last.fm doesn't seem to pick up on these.
