It's possible that WMP incorrectly identifies a CD as another album. To fix this, look up the album info manually: right-click one of the tracks, select Find album info , search for the correct album, and follow the remaining steps of the wizard.

If you go to the All Music Guide database (which is used by WMP), and the information there is incorrect as well, you should be able to correct it there.
Also, if you make corrections through Find Album Info, that information might be used to correct the database in the future.
Where exactly can one find the database to which you are referring. I was just at the site, and saw nothing of a database. Thanks!
Ok, what about when the database getting the information is wrong? How can we get that corrected? The info on the CD is somehow not getting the correct info to the database or the database does not have it and it just gets the next closest thing.
The database on iTunes has the correct info.
Sorry that did not help i tried both methods, hmm strange as it happened to another of my CDs.... i guess the "Find album info" search isn't actually listed with every album.
