Where can I find cover art?
« on: April 12, 2004, 05:16:34 am »

I started going through my mp3 collection today, and did a massive "Image->Search for cover art on Internet"   It worked well for about half of the albums.   Some of them were wrong, and I was surprised it couldnt find "David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars"

Its possible that I could have one word in the title wrong, but for this and the other 'non-existent' albums.... is there a way that I can find a master-list of cover art and start choosing manually?   How does MC do its internet search for cover art?

either you can use the king's cover art finder. Check spartasoft.com

or you can search manually on the internet. try fx coverkingdom.net or amazon

Make sure you're using MC 10.0.110 or later as there were recently some improvements here.
