Description: Fetch Art will allow you to automatically download album art for your music in iTunes. It uses album art from Amazon.com, and the ID3 tags in your MP3 files to determine the appropriate CD cover to download. If your ID3 tags are incorrect or incomplete, you may not get any art for that song, and occasionally will actually get the wrong art as it was unable to correctly find the album on Amazon.What's new in this version:Modified the code to fix a bug introduced by Apple in iTunes 7.7.1. Now this works with iTunes 7.7.1.Added more logic in constructing the query to Amazon to improve search accuracy.Amazon changed some behaviors with empty keywords, I've eliminated the existence of empty keywords in the search.Prioritized album art so that it should find the correct album art before single releases. Earlier versions were returning singles instead of the album.
