versus?
ver·sus ( P ) Pronunciation Key (vűrss, -sz)
prep.
Abbr. v. or vs. Against: the plaintiff versus the defendant; Army versus Navy.
As the alternative to or in contrast with: “freedom of information versus invasion of privacy” (Ian Hamilton). |

| If you mean "VS" being part as a title track of a song, most of the time its a mashup of 2 tracks. |

"Vs" in a track title doesn't always denote a bootleg. Sometimes collaborations are titled "Artist vs. Artist". :) |

| Yeah. Like a certain artist improving a mix of another or vice-versa |

| Just a fancier way to put "&". |

Usually it's just a way to show that two artists collaborated.
vs., &, feat., etc. have all been used in this manner. |

"feat." is usually used if the other part only had a small input, though. Or if that other person was the vocalist. |

True... although I have seen cases where feat. was used and a minor contribution didn't seem to be implied. I just meant that various terms have been used to denote a collaboration and one shouldn't read too much into them. |

Yeah, there's no real rule to them, people use them as they see fit (or what looks the coolest ;) ). |

Possibly the worst collaboration notation used thus far:
