Tools: Artie

So you're tired of searching through Amazon.com for album art to go in your iTunes library.

You and me both, hermano.

Apparently, everybody uses Amazon to collect artwork for their ripped iTunes albums. It's a ubiquitous process. I do it. Your father does it. Your Aunt Netta watches it every night on the VCR.

Anyhow, you don't have to waste time doing manual searches and dragging artwork one-at-a-time anymore. Artie will do it for you. And Artie will do a good ass job.

Just upload your iTunes .xml library file and let Artie search. Artie returns a very high percentage of correctly-matched album images (at least, in my completely unscientific tests). Some will be misses, and some won't be found at all. But it's considerably easier than doing it all by hand.

Artie wins my Useful Tool of the Day Award. You'll be glad Patrick Moberg thought it up.
