Bulk fix Album artwork in iTunes library for display on a Squeezebox Controller

This may actually be two questions in one. I've recently bought a Logitech Squeezebox Duet and as a result have noticed that a large amount of the album artwork in my iTunes library is either missing or just completely wrong.

"Regarding your second question, iTunes stores some artwork in its library database, and puts some in the meta tags on your files. Your Duet should be able to display any artwork from a file's tags, but won't display artwork in the iTunes database.

I found a post on AVforums that mentions that the Duet will check two places for artwork:

The file's tags, and
The folder the file resides in, for files named folder.jpg, album.jpg, thumb.jpg, or cover.jpg.

I believe any tool that will scan your library files and download the cover art to either the folder or the tags will work for fixing artwork in the Duet."
