I just created a new store account.
Do you have to pay to download Album Artwork into iTunes?

No, you don't have to pay for it. Just select "Get Album Art" from the "Advanced" menu.

Thanx, first time with iTunes Store, so was just afraid to run up a bill downloading artwork.

Just FYI the Amazon Album Art Widget is really handy when iTunes can't find the right artwork.

Cool, I also bought Album Art Thingy, which works fairly well, also find the lyrics for the songs.
I'll use iTunes to try and find what AAT can't. The Album Art that iTunes normally gets seems to be better quality though.

I'm going to try this one from Amazon now as well.

Anyone used CoverScout, seems like a really cool program (just Google CoverScout).

Cheers

Too bad you spent money on that app, since TunesTEXT and the Album Art widget together do the same thing for free.

I agree that Amazon's art isn't as good as iTunes's, but I listen to a lot of non-Western music that iTunes just doesn't find very well.
