I agree with the previous commenters that the artwork it finds is a bit rubbish. I've tried to fix this by coding up a plugin that uses Google Image Search. It's my first Ruby script though, so be gentle :-)

Save the below to a file and then read http://nclasssoftware.com/corripio_scripts/ to find out how to install it.

#!/usr/bin/ruby
#

require 'net/http'
require 'open-uri'
require 'uri'
require 'cgi'

query = (ARGV + ["album"]).join(" ")
sizes = ["medium", "large", "xlarge"].join("|")
uri = "http://images.google.co.uk/images?hl=en&q=#{CGI.escape(query)}&imgsz=#{CGI.escape(sizes)}"

source = open(URI.parse(uri)).read.gsub("\r\n", "")

matcher = /dyn.Img\(".*?",".*?",".*?","(.*?)"/
matches = source.scan(matcher)

matches.first(10).each { |match| puts match.first }

I'd love to use it, since it offers exactly what I want.

But it's crap. Looks like it was programmed with hot needles. It crashes two out of three times whenever I run it. Even when all I try to do is fix capitalization.

Unfortunately it seems to only work from the iTunes library, you can't just drag and drop a file and save the album cover as a picture file in a folder.

This software is utter crap. So far the choises it has given me have been 95% absurd and 5% to the point. I totally recommend against it.

It will say and sort if a track has/hasn't got artwork, but it won't actually show any of it outside of searching? Bizzare.

Good that user-scripts are in this latest version, as I can't rely on the American big box catalogues for what I listen to. So I've been better off with Curator and its Google-bilities.

Does this get artwork from the iTMS yet? I know art collector does...

Magnificent! I tried several artwork downloading apps and none of them compares to this. Hands down, the best app for its purpose.

I use Album Art Thingy, downloads and adds them automatically. Just set it to find whats playing otherwise if you have 200gb of mp3s and have it run it one go it will take its time.

I am a Music Libraray freak. I typically do my own searching since most applications do a poor job at finiding lyrics and albums for anything that isn't Top 40. Corripio comes the closest (of free or pay programs) to being useful, although it still doesn't fulfill all my needs.

Good App, but more useful for Music Library freaks than for the average joe. Slightly unstable, but not termendously so.

Doesn't crash for me, however it's mostly unusable for me since it only offers 500 pixel covers which bloats the files on my iPod.
