You can get artwork from Amazon, Discogs, MusicBrainz.
When you select a source, it does a lookup on artist name and/or album name, and shows possible matches (often several different versions of a release of an album). When you select one of those hits, you see the metadata, and how it would be matched to the files you are tagging. You can specify whether you want the artwork stored into the tags, or stored on disk, which will happen when you select Okay to choose to update your files with all tag info. Also, you can right-click the image and select to save to disk immediately, and then cancel to avoid changing any tags. _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
