I did a series of test lookups on their web site search front-end and it
is obviously only checking a couple of locations carrying mainstream
current albums. Is this the same on-line database as their product
uses, or is the latter something more sophisticated? 

The web-based search found under 15% of the albums or artists I asked
it about (deliberately awkward ones of course): Album Art Aggregator is
better at locating album art than that, using very similar sources. 

I guess the problem is that my collection includes things like Sergey
Kuryokhin's 'Sparrow Oratorium'and Huub de Lange's 'Life and death in a
street organ'...(both artists are in the database at AllMusic.com, I
wonder if anyone's thought of using them for track/artwork lookups?)

All this presumably means that MusicMagic would have to do complete
analysis on a significant proportion of my collection. What's the
general view on this product, especially as one evidently has to
subscribe to get Slimserver integration? Is it worth the effort?

Thanks,
