Ah right I never knew it would work with the USB.

I've got a few older albums on it exactly as it was on the CD and I don't think they produce album art!

Was the whole idea of Gracenote that you could put a CD in that didn't have CD Text and the the tracks would be labelled correctly but the length of the songs had to marry exactly with the Gracenote version?

It does all sorts of things, from track listings to album art

Its pretty good (if not up to date!) and has obscure stuff. not just mainstream.

Yep and if it can't match your MP3/FLAC/etc file for the album art but it can find the genre it shows a generic icon for that instead.

I like it but I would like to be able to update and customise things a bit...pipe dreaming I reckon
