BobbyDouglas -> CD/Album cover database? (2/18/2007 19:50:08)

I've used freedb.com in the past to get information on CD tracks, however, I can't find anything that includes a cover of the CD.

I'm setting up a music server, and I need my program to read in a location of a cd cover, or read the image itself.

Any ideas?

I'm not sure if there is a single source for legal on-line cd cover artwork. There are several sources of a more questionable nature, these are some of the ones I use occasionally to replace CD covers that may have become damaged. Some of them may offer a database that you can automatically access.

Thanks for the links!

http://www.cdcovers.to has a very nice database, but since they link to other websites, so it would be pretty hard to grab the image of the art, since they link to so many sites. The others either had 404s, or didn't have the CDs in the db (at least the few I tried).

I ran across Yamo, it works with the Amazon API to return CD covers, but that assumes the CD is in Amazon's DB. So far, each one has been, even the extremely rare albums.
