Re: [Banshee-List] Feature Request: Better Album Cover Chooser

I think they need to be separate options. I'd like my metadata to be 
kept up-to-date in the file in case I move the file or lose the database 
whatever, but album art can either be retrieved later or copied across 
en-mass if needs be and (IMO) doesn't need to be within the file as long 
as it is available.
