Going to start to clean up my FLAC collection finally. In my MP3 collection for iTunes, if a song is sang by 2 singers, I do this
Singer A **/** Singer B
In iTunes, this is not recognized as two singer but as one. I am not aware of any other way.
Can anyone suggest what is the right way for me to tag my FLAC songs (or MP3 songs) for multiple artists so that it is recognized by popular software ?

iTunes doesn't have a multiple artists concept.
If you want to create multiple value tags in flac, use Artist1\\Artist2 in Mp3tag.
