There is a similar request for Plex in general, but:

If I view my albums by default order - Artist - I see Artist Name in bold, in a larger font, with the album title below in a smaller, regular font.

However if I change my sort order to Title, I STILL see the Artist Name on top, in a bold, larger font, with the album title still below in a smaller, regular font. Makes it harder to pick out the album title, especially in a large library!

It would be great if the top row of the album info displayed the information being sorted by - so sorting by Title would show the Album Title on the top row in the larger, bold font, with the artist name underneath in the smaller, regular font.

Early 2021 clean-up: duplicate

> When sorting albums by title, the Plex UI (on the web and clients) displays the artists name as the most prominent thing. This is confusing because it’s the title which should be the most prominent - to match the sorting method. See images below on how this change would look before and after: [metadata-sort-display-change] Edit: I incorrectly stated in the image that this is an issue on Plexamp. This isn’t true as, to date, [Plexamp doesn’t support sorting by album title](https://forums.plex.tv/t/feature-request-sort-by-album-title/586490).
