In Reply to: RE: regarding metadata/album art. Anyone use Bliss? posted by cootcraig on August 16, 2014 at 10:03:45
I get my information from Discogs including album art. It's free. I've done more than 2000 and the only ones I have a hard time with are bootlegs and other unofficial releases. And it surprised me how often I can find concert posters or the bootleg covers on line to use as artwork.
As far as the other information goes the metadata that I get for CDs, automatically download when the CD is recognized, is more often than not what I expect or want it to be.
Regardless if you chose to download your metadata or not you probably want to find a good tag editor. I use MP3tag and it really is an essential tool.

Follow Ups:
I find Discogs really hit or miss on album artwork when it comes to quality. Have you ever tried
www.albumartexchange.com
Or
www.allcdcovers.com
There are several others specializing in artwork.
Or try Google images. Lots of choices there.
The availability of high quality cover art on Google has really improved over the last year. I am just cautious of some of the links. iTunes cover art has also really improved but of course using Get Album Art in iTunes doesn't embed the artwork in the file but there are a couple of workarounds.
Looks like 2 great sites - thanks. Yes sometimes the artwork on discogs is not very good. Thanks!
