New versions of "Winamp" has a option for this.

It works fine for "English" songs, you will have to check how effective it is with "Indian" songs.

get an itunes account--u can get all your album art .
if your music collection is in mesh then use tune up companion.-www.tuneupmedia.com

WiMP also displays album art. Just embed the jpg file into the mp3 file or put a picture titled folder.jpg into the album folder.

WiMP can also display album art. Simply embed the album pic into the mp3 file or add a folder.jpg image to the album folder.

If you use last.fm, it will also download the album art and artist descriptions.

@x3060

You can sure do with "Winamp.
- Right Click & Choose "View File Info".
- Select "ArtworK" window. Click "Download Art". Though the quality/size wont be always good.
- You can permanently embed those artworks with iTunes (Cant do with Winamp atleast not with the version i used).
Also, can download albumart (its free i guess). But u need to make a account first, wont accept indian credit/debit cards though.

Here how mine look :

There's a site which do only album art for i-pod size (320*240). Do a google.

bro...

as stonecaper said u can use mediamonkey it has the mp3 tagging feature where u can do anything including album art, lyrics, artist details and much more... u can use the player in three modes normal, mini, micro....

am using mediamonkey ver.3.0 which offers superior sound quality than winamp, its best player i have ever seen

It's seems to me that Media Catalog Studio can also work for the task. You can try its free version to see how it works.
