Album Art Downloader – Organize Music Collection
Album Art Downloader is the essential open source software download for anyone who enjoys creating and updating the art for their own private music collections, and will allow users to go through each of their albums and select matching cover images from a variety of sources. Album Art Downloader will search online stores and databases such as Buy.com, Amazon, YesAsia and MusicMight and also search engines such as Google Images to find all of the cover art you need and will display them for you so that you can choose the one you want.
Installation
It is easy to download and install Album Art Downloader, and this free software is compatible with most operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, Linux, Mac OS, Unix etc, but for some systems you will need Python 2.3+ and Python Imaging Library installed to run this software. Album Art Downloader will display images on existing applications such as KDE, Gnome, Windows Media Player, Cdcover and CoverViewer (both freeware XMMS plugins) and also wmalbum (WindowMaker dock applet). For example FreeDesktop.org formats such as KDE and Gnome will display the cover art as a folder icon whilst you are browsing through your collection. Some portable music players will also be able to show the cover images you have updated in your collection if they are embedded in the MP3 file.
Using Album Art Downloader
When you first install this freeware the Album Art section will be blank and you will need to manually insert all of the albums you wish to find covers for by clicking on ‘File Open’ and then browsing your computer until you find your music library. Now you need to select the albums you want to find cover art for and click on ‘open’ and they will be moved across to the application. You can then click on ‘Download Covers’, which will begin an automatic search for all of the covers in the new directory you have set up, or you can manually select those albums you want to find covers for. Once the image results have been returned you simply select the covers you want to keep and click on ‘Set as Cover’.
