iTunes album art

Not sure if I heard about this here, but I found a brilliant source of iTunes album covers.. Simply export your iTunes library as a text file, upload the file to the site, then drag and drop the covers into the relevant song or album info boxes on iTunes.

Good find, but with over 4300 mp3's it's far too much hassle. Better off using something like this: http://www.yvg.com/itunesartimporter.shtml

Not really.. If you have multiple songs selected from an album (which the artimporter prog requires as well), you right click, select "Get Info". Ignore the warning about editing multiple songs, then drag the artwork from the site into there. That will update ALL the songs you selected.

It's still a mammoth task, especially considering that the majority of my tunes are individual songs and not complete albums, it's still FAR less hassle to use one of the many tools available for both Macs and Windows machines to do it all completely automatically.

True, and I actually do have one of these at home (which will go through your entire iTunes library and download the artwork automatically), but I was looking for a package to do this for my laptop yesterday and couldn't find one I didn't need to pay for.

Fantastic piece of kit that, just used it myself. It saved me a lot of time.
