The BEST way is to get covers manually. It's not the fastest of
course.
If your music is properly tagged and album names are correct, iTunes is
an invaluable source for decent resolution images for a large collection
of music. You can easily imbed the artwork into your tracks with a
simple
Used mp3toys, very nice program, ok so around 10% of the art its found
seems to be wrong (at a guess), but its got something for everything,
and it did do it all by itself. Now just means I've got to slowly spot
the 200 or so that have the worng album cover, some more obvious than
others.
If you're on a Mac, Export Artwork
(http://www.dizzypenguin.com/automac-it/) will automatically get
artwork for your entire iTunes music collection. It's great - I've used
it for years.

Don't forget Yahoo Image search, I find it usually gives better and
more relevant results that Google for cover art.

I just did this - MP3Toys found most of my album art. It's fully
automated, uses multiple web sources for the images, and reads tags,
filenames, and directory structure to identify the tracks. All you
have to do is download it and point it to your music and it does the
rest.
The only problem
Between Google image search and discogs.com I found covers for
everything I have, and I own some really obscure stuff :)

For manual searching http://www.discogs.com/ is an amazing site,
requires a little getting used to, as it'll contain vinyl and every
format released. for most things it has pretty high resolution covers,
and backs of the cd case when you click on the album art.

I'd watch out for the fetch album art feature in iTunes. In version 7+
it doesn't store the artwork in the ID3 tags (so that Slimserver can
read it) but rather in it's own database. Basically it's great if all
you ever use is iTunes and your iPod (typical Apple)

I don't need to get to 100% although it would obviously be nice, just
something that resembles most of it. Itunes just doesn't seem at all
usefull for some reason.
I'll give Album Art Aggregator a try, thanks.

Agree about AA Aggregator - good tool but not fully automated by any
means. I was dreading doing my collection of 2,000 FLAC albums but it
only took a day to get jpg's of about everything I had using Aggregator
and Google. Fixtunes is a good application if you are using iTunes.

Any programs that are good at searching
