I wrote a script in AutoIt, that can easily be converted to whatever you are using, as it just makes DLL calls to a MediaInfoPlus.dll. This would allow you to read the ID3 tags for artist, title, album ect. This could be a good first line check, if the tags exists, use it to find the album art, and if not then try to scrape the file name which can be a pain with so many naming possibilities on each machine.
If you would like it, just let me know.
i've got it scanning and writting to mp3's so far, wma and m4a are a pain to write to (drm)
post the script though, always good to see how others do it
