I'm playing with SlimServer 6.1 and SoftSqueeze at the moment in
anticipation of buying my real Squeezebox next month. So far things are
going really well. I've ripped 8 albums using EAC to on-the-fly FLAC
with tags looked up from freedb (using EAC).

My one uncertainty is cover art. I understand from what I've seen in
the SlimServer help that I have 2 choices, I can either add it using
the ID3 tag or I can save a cover.jpg file into each album directory.
Presumeably if I use the ID3 tag then I need a suitable tagger.

My preference is to add cover art as an ID3 tag. I plan to use Telcanto
for SlimServer in my living room to control the system (I already bought
a Dell Axim X30 just for this), I'm not sure if Telcanto supports both
methods for cover art or if it requires the ID3 tag to be used (does
anyone know?).

If I go down the ID3 route then what do people recommend as the best
software to set the cover art tag? I've seen T&F (Tag & Fix?)
recommended here and I don't see why that wouldn't be an excellent
choice but I'd just like to hear if there are any alternatives and the
pros and cons of any alternatives that there might be.
