There should be an option to ordenate songs on "The", nor the next word.

I don't know why, but when I add a song to my Music Library, when it begins with "The"/"El"/"La", its ordened by the second word.

Example, I add a song from The Rolling Stones. Its ordened like "Rolling Stones", and i want to get this on "The".

There should be an option to chose how to ordenate the library.

In iTunes for Windows the auto-sort feature is controlled by the file C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\<Region Code>.lproj\SortPrefixes.plist. For English the words ignored for sorting are "A ", "An " &amp; "The ". You could edit this list or just use the Sort Artist, Sort Album Artist etc. fields as necessary when you'd like something sorted into a different position. Don't have access to a computer to check the Spanish list but you should be able to chose which values auto-sort.
