I'd probably use the band's native language for the title and the track
titles. And even though I don't agree with it, I've seen editors using both
the native language and English for titles of similar releases. A feature
that would allow to store both tracklists (in Hungarian and in English
here), and to display only one based on the users preferences, would be
very neat.
