Overview: While many MP3 players and network audio players (eg Logitech's Squeezebox and the Sonos Digital Music System) have the ability to display CD cover art while playing music tracks - finding, downloading and saving CD cover images in appropriate dimensions can be quite a chore. Some MP3 players come with software to simplify this process, but mostly users have to manually copy images into music libraries where they can be detected and displayed by the player software. "Album Art For MP3" (aa4mp3) is a no-nags no-ads freeware utility designed to make the process of finding, downloading, resizing and saving CD cover images as painless as possible. How To Use Basics: 1.

You'll only need to do this once (unless you wish to change your preferences.) 2. Use the folder treeview to navigate to the folder where you wish to add or update an image. 3. Find images using any of the following methods ...
4. Images will automatically be resized to the dimensions specified in your preferences. 5. Select the image you wish to save and right click and choose "Save As" from the popup menu.
