You are making assumptions about the OS.  I don't think it can be assumed that 
every OS that this runs on can get the filesize or image resolution as easily 
as you think.

Other ways to select would be to find the image with the squarest image aspect 
ratio, or produce a montage image from all the images that it finds in the 
folder.
What if the songs on an album come from different folders?

Exactly what I meant.  I think additional logic would over complicate it 
unnecessarily.  Ultimately, if the wrong image is automatically selected, the 
user can correct it.
