Hit triangle and under album Type the folder name you want.

Then once you got them all with album names, hit the sort button till it sorts by albums..

And now they will be in folders...

Or you can keep hitting sort till it sorts by date I think its square..

They don't always?? I think only while watching a dvd or blu that pauses the download. But I'm sure the background downloads continue while gaming.

If a game's online or using the HDD extensively it may pause background downloads. Burnout's doing a bit of both as it starts background copying (no visible install!) from BD to your HDD when the game starts and it's regularly bringing down information about what your friends are doing or have done in the game. And there's the Burnout Calendar and very soon to come Criterion Games Network stuff.
