Hmmmmmm......

I think I'm going to go insane.

Once upon a time I had my entire mp3 collection in a jukebox program called ejukebox (pc). It was a terrific program and despite it's rather buggy demeanor, worked well. I had to spend a lot of time finding album covers. When this program was updated I spent a lot more time finding larger album covers that it could now display.

Then I found coverflow and started using itunes because of it. I transfered my collection to my mac and spent ages finding even bigger covers so covertunes looked great. Itunes 6 didn't display a lot of my album covers. Dunno why. Maybe it doesn't like jpgs or something

Then Apple release itunes 7. Itunes spent 2 days looking for album covers & made a huge mess of it, splitting albums and the like! Now, so I don't have to find covers for the 60% of missing artwork, is there anything I can do? I have a folder of .s3tc files from coverflow, but they won't drag and drop into itunes...

I can't be bothered re-doing the task because of Apples rather sh!t software.

Any ideas to save me from MacHell?

You can be made at Apple and iTunes, but you should also be mad at Coverflow for using proprietary formats to take open jpgs and close them off like this.

Uisce
