The amazon.pl script I used when writing my script is attached here:

Nice job, Tim. I actually added that logic to my script to skip album  
art it already found but no one seemed interesting enough for me to  
share. Besides.. I ended up falling in love with goom and never use  
the Album Art visualization any more - especially now that .20  
displays track information when it changes.
