    These are just back-of-the-napkin thoughts but more than anything I wanted to point out that there are ways to solve this problem.

    Actually, a system like that already exists. BMI and ASCAP have a unique registration number for each song title. So even if 100 tracks have the same name, they would each have a unique registration number that specifies the songwriters and publishers. Many companies forget that this system exists and then there is confusion.

    @Desire it seems to me the missing link in the BMI/ASCAP system is the actual audio that would be tied to the registration number. Also I think it would be nice if BMI/ASCAP exposed an API so that registration numbers could be obtained programatically. In my opinion, ACE Title Search Web UI is clunky at best and has the look/feel of something that was programmed ten years ago.

    Agreed.
