Album art in i-tunes
I noticed that when I buy a CD in i-tunes, the album art comes on the screen automatically (in the lower left corner). Is there any way to download album art for the tracks that I burn from my actual CD's? Perhaps similar to how you download track information?
The only way I have found manually is to download the art myself (say off of a record co. website) and drag and drop it on the screen for each individual track. Two problems, first its very time consuming and second, you can only do one track at a time (not all tracks by a certain artist, for instance).
Also, when I download art manually, it only seems to pop up when I click on the track. If the track comes up on its own (i.e., shuffle-play), the art does not appear! Any tips or hints?

is there a good windows program out there that will let you download at once album art automatically from amazon.com or allmusic.com? I have not been able to find one.

BTW, I don't know of any program that will automatically d/l album art off the web, but for those of you (like me) who always hunt for album art for your ripped or downloaded tunes, the best web sites I've found for album art are www.buy.com and www.walmart.com. They usually have the highest resolution (largest) pics. When that fails (as it sometimes does) an image search on google will usually do the trick.

You mention walmart and buy.comhaving the highest resolution artwork, but is it really that important since the images are so small?

Only matters when listening to tunes on your PC (as opposed to iPod). If you click on the thumbnail of the album art you get a full size view of the album art. That looks way hokey if you've inserted some low-res puny little pic.
