Karl,

Thanks for the advice... I'm still a little confused, though. Are you 
talking about the artwork that GrowlTunes displays? 'Cuz I thought it 
just used an AppleScript to grab that from iTunes, and iTunes (which 
is VERY closed source) was somehow grabbing the artwork along with 
the cddb stuff.
