Are all your files MP3s? If so, get MusicBrainz Picard plus the Album Art plugin, run that through your music collection and it'll pull down and tag all your music with the correct album art. Point MediaMonkey at the folder your music then resides, and let it add it all to its Library. You'll have all the album art and it'll transfer it all over to your iPod easily

Alex, me and you should start a Picard and MediaMonkey fan club, see if we can get everyone to convert

Hah, I never liked the look of it, even years back. Firefox I couldn't do without and I currently have some cracking plugins like 'AutoPager', 'Cool Iris', 'All-In-One Sidebar', 'Fire FTP', 'Update Notifier' and 'Sxipper' installed on it which combined make browsing a total pleasure.

I'm a convert. Never used it, but I hate iTunes, so anything must be better, right?

I tried MediaMonkey and went back to iTunes after MediaMonkey completely failed at being sensible about anything.

I found iTunes far easier, it just worked. Add music, move to iPod. Easy.

I do prefer WinAmp for general use but the latest releases have caused me huge memory leaks (1.5GB+) so i've binned that for now.

Foobar is my music player of choice. Great audio output, got it running in 5.1 now which is nice, looks pretty with my current theme and I like how is displays album art within it.

Foobar confused the hell out of me, I couldn't even find my way to the library so I gave up before I even started

Yeah, if you use it as default it's awful to be honest. You need to get themes on there.

Albums view:

Songs view:


If I added the songs lyrics to the ID3 tag I would get those on the Song view too.
For me it just leaves WinAMP standing in both looks and functionality.
