Wow, what a PITA - but thanks

I also vaguely recall not having to manage album art images with my iTunes music library decades ago but it wasn't perfect. There were a few Mac utilities for automatically fixing missing artwork in iTunes.

"If you cancel your subscription or use the files outside ROON, all the ROON supplied meta data is gone."

Well, since I purchased Roon years ago and started streaming (Qobuz/Tidal) my local music library on disk hasn't grown much. I might go in and fix some album art (for use in other players or the EverSolo) but I'm not going to stress over it. Roon is my primary platform and it provides any missing album art and the streaming services all do as well.

Thanks for the info.

P.S. By embedding album art images into each music file aren't you unnecessarily increasing each file size? If I needed album art in the past I would place just one album image in its album folder. Is this not sufficient?
