disCoverJ

As we are sure you already know, one of the best ways to keep your music organized is to classify it in folders or, even better, with the help of tags. It might also be a good idea to find suitable artwork for your music files, making them more recognizable.

disCoverJ is a streamlined piece of software that makes it very simple for you to find suitable cover artwork for your MP3 files and albums.

Probably the first thing you need to know about disCoverJ is the fact that it comes with batch processing abilities. This means that you can load as many MP3s as you like and the app sequentially searches for their artwork.

Assuming you already have Java installed on your computer, disCover features a typical installation process, subsequent to which you are greeted by a simplistic main window. The interface is not stylish, but it is not bad either, with a small set of buttons and panels.

Thanks to its intuitive interface, working with disCoverJ should not pose any kind of problems even for the most inexperienced users out there. You simply need to load your files from their location onto the utility's main window via drag and drop gestures and press the designated button to start the searching process.

At this point, the tool searches online for information and artwork for you music on music-related services like iTunes, Deezer, Spotify, Discogs, Gracenote, Amazon, Google and even on your computer. Once the searching process is completed, the app displays the statistics via a pie chart.

If the app finds suitable artwork and cover images for your music, it automatically saves them in each MP3's ID3 tags.

The application's simplicity is its strong point, as it makes it very manageable but, ironically, it is also its weak point. The large majority of tagging apps out there can help you retrieve cover photos and artwork for your MP3s just as well, but can also provide you with other features that are simply out of disCoverJ's reach.

DisCoverJ is a simplistic software solution for retrieving artwork and cover images for your MP3s. The application comes with a streamlined interface and a smooth learning curve, making it ideal for all categories of users.
