How do YOU get album art?

[taibant]

i search the song in the itunes music store, copy the info they have to my file, and right click and get album artwork... as long as the ID3 tag matches it will download the art for you

i will have to try the amazon thing listed above though

Call me old fashioned, but I still buy every CD, that's how I get my album art! And Hi-Quality audio rippage.

Well, I guess I do it a more complicated way than I should.
First, if I don't know the album of a song, I google the song and find the album.
I then google image the album name and look for the best looking/correct album.
I copy and paste that into a MSpaint "project"
Save that
Go into itunes and in the about song, I pick the album cover from whatever I saved the picture as.
and then give the Album a name, and the artist if it was not already provided.

Well, there is alot of CD's that iTunes doesn't have, like many grindcore or death metal genres.

Exactly! I love my obscure metal bands! I use an app called CoverScout, its excellent...

I just Google Image them up.

I actually enjoy fine tuning my library. I'll play some music, just chill out, have a couple drinks and get my music lookin' good.

lol that is exactly what i am doing right now

I just fine tuned my library the other night. I just put the name of the album / artist in the google image search, find the album cover I want, then just right click and "copy image". then just jump back onto itunes, right click the album / song. and click on "get info" there is a spot right there to just "paste" the image. and then it's DONE. It will then add the album image to every song on that album in your library.
