When no cover art for release event, optionally check other versions

 Description  « Hide

When only some versions of an album have cover art, it would be useful if the cover art downloader plugin could (at the user's option) use art from another version of the album. 99% of the time, cover art is identical between regions and releases, and is usually as similar as possible between media formats.

This would especially be useful:

  • for early CD releases not typically sold directly by Amazon etc.
  • for older, non-CD formats such as cassette
  • for people in regions where usable cover art is frequently not available on-line
  • for people who prefer to use the oldest release with the same track listing regardless of their actual source (e.g. for sorting albums chronologically)
