Class name substring collision

It seems that class names cannot be substrings of other class names, lest they collide at compile time. For example, if I have a class album and another class iTunes album, the compiler will map the "album" in "iTunes album" to album and throw an error because it doesn't know what "iTunes" means.

Is this true? If so, is there any way to get around this, other than having to think of two words for every kind of media?
