Does anyone know of a good freeware application for getting album covers for iTunes? I have a good number of cd's I've ripped onto my computer and I'd like to put their cover on (especially now that I'm toying around with CoverFlow).

I've tried Fetch Art and GetArtWork and neither seem to work well.

Thank you in advance.
 
I use Art Collector, and it's fantastic. Open it up and it will show you all the Albums on your computer. When you click an album, it searches amazon.com for art, and displays it. Then just drag, and drop. It's really easy, and I love the program. Sometimes artwork searchs take a few moments, but otherwise it is a really great program.
 
check cdnow.com

I've been updating my album art as well and found that you can pull .jpegs directly off of cdnow.com when you find the name of the album. Click on the thumbnail of the album and it should open up as an isolated .jpeg. Most art is around 300x300 dpi and in relatively good shape. They had it "blocked" for a while with a subscription pop-up, but it seems to be working okay these days.:D
