Uniquely identify albums and songs in Windows Phone media library

I am importing a songs collection from an Album object that is obtained from querying MediaLibrary on Windows Phone Mango.

Is there a unique identifier provided by the platform, by which I could be identifying different songs and albums?

I need something that will remain the same for the same albums if I re-query the MediaLibrary next time my app is ran.

I have seen a "handle" property in the debugger, but it doesn't appear in any of the Album class documentation.

I'd try GetHashCode() for Song and Album. At least Song overrides this function directly, so hopefully it is computed from the song's properties.
