Want album covers for your MP3 collection?

There is a new program out there called “Album Cover Grabber”. It is basically a bot that grabs album covers off the internet(www.allmusic.com in particular). In order for it to work, it expects your music collection to be in a certain format. Your root music directory should contain artist directories, and underneath each artist dir should be album directories. Album Grabber will attempt to locate the correct album cover and present it to you in a window along with ‘yes’ and ‘no’ options. ‘yes’ means to save the album jpg inside the album directory, ‘no’ means do nothing and proceed. The program is multi threaded, so you can let it run for awhile and then come back and make your decisions. It is written in Java, so almost everyone should be able to take advantage of this neat little program. Some recent additons include artist picture grabbing and auto cropping.
