In Option --> Song Setup, would it be possible to include another field that specifies where a song is from? I know this could be included under artist, but do you think it would be better if it had it's own field? For example, Frog's Theme right now uses this song setup:
Artist: Chrono Trigger - Yasunori Mitsuda
Title: Frog's Theme
But with an extra field like I mentioned above, I would change it to be like this:
Video Game/Anime (or whatever you want to call it): Chrono Trigger
Artist: Yasunori Mitsuda
Title: Frog's Theme
Here's another example: http://osu.ppy.sh/index.php?p=song&s=688
How am I suppose to know that's the sonic staff credits without looking at the beatmap's thread or dowloading it first? I don't know who Masato Nakamura is, but I am familiar with sonic (who isn't).
Anyway, I believe this would eliminate confusion with some beatmaps and give mappers a specific place to mention where a beatmap is from. This wouldn't have to be filled in if it were a pop song, obviously, but for video games, anime, tv shows, movies, and other things you can probably think of, this would really help out I think.
