Some of the album artwork, if you click the picture will take you to another page with just the image, often times in much higher resolution.
 
I usually just do a Google image search. I don't know if I have ever not found what I was looking for. Just type in artist and album name.
 
I usually use Google Images and go to the bands site, if they have a discograghy section.
 
Best way to find high quality artwork without any hassle whatsover: Right click on the selected album/song->"Get album artwork".

That is true. I always try that first but it doesn't always work. So we are helping him find alternatives.
 
I have used this and there was something called Corripo or something along those lines that out of nowhere it stopped working entirely.
 
after becoming a member of albumartexchange.com, I could never consider any artwork coming directly from the itunes store to be high quality:p

The song, title, artist has to be exactly formatted as iTunes would have it or it doesn't work. Also, you have to have a song that is present in the iTunes library. Generally speaking at least 20% of my artwork isn't in iTunes.
 
I just Google the album's name in Google's image search. Then I pick that picture which has highest resolution -> open it in full size -> right-click + copy image -> paste it to iTunes
 
Amazon is usually fairly good. There are programs to automate downloading and embedding the cover into the mp3 too. I use mp3tag (PC) which does the job well.

I also use a pc program called tag & rename which also pulls the album artwork for you.

Amazon.com and google are the two places I get 99% of my album artwork.
 
Google wins.


The founders of Google are the 5th richest guys in the USA for a reason.
Google frickin rocks!

The numbers.....
Google founders: Sergey Brin & Larry Page, $18.5 billion each.
 
AlbumArtExchange.com has the highest quality artwork of any site out there. With 73,000+ images there are a couple of sites with more but those sites clearly have inferior quality. Unlike other sites, AAE's emphasis is on quality, not quantity.
