[question] Where Cd Covers Stored?

Does anyone know where iTunes stores the CD Cover images? I know Media Player puts them in the same folder as the songs. It's just I like to have the folders have the CD art on as well.

They're stored in the actual mp3

That seems a bit of a strange place to store them. In the XML file there is a number that shows which image to show. I can't imagine it storing it in the mp3 as surely that would affect it playing in other media players? :blink:

Found them: x:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp

This also explains why they kept going missing.

Note: iTunes creates a copy here for each song you drag and drop an image on, even if the image is already in this folder. I suggest relocating the art and adding it through the info dialog instead.

They're not in the temp folder, trust me, try deleting the temp folder and reopening iTunes, they'll still be there.

I'm pretty sure they're in the mp3 file itself because I'm currently extracting them for use with my Neon Samurize Album Art widget
