[Bug 92967] Re: album art inconsistently missing from OSD

Amarok can't store the album images inline because of the license from
Amazon (where it gets the cover art from)...the art must be
refetched/refreshed after a certain number of days (which I believe is
generally done automatically).  Storing the images in the file would
make it near impossible to provide any certainty that we were complying
with the license.

I'm not sure where iTunes gets its images from, but I imagine it has to
do with a music store that it has access to and somewhat controls the
rights of...

That being said, I can't help you as I don't have an iPod so can't test
things out; perhaps another developer can, or you can hack at the code
yourself and submit a patch  :-)
