Thanks for the replies and the warm welcome. I did a complete clear-out
of the library and a rescan, and that helped considerably. I also think
I figured out a couple of the issues. The first was that I was tagging
the CD's prior to ripping. Although in Media Monkey that resulted in the
art work appearing on screen, it did not carry over to the SB. Not that
surprising now that I think about it, because MM certainly wasn't going
to be able to modify the tracks on the disc itself. The second thing is
that occasionally I was inadvertently putting the artwork tag into a
folder instead of attaching it to the tag itself. That caused all sorts
of problems, but now I know better. 

Thanks for the recommendation on mp3tag. Looks serious. I will
definitely get into that when I really need to get under the hood of a
tag and get a little dirty.

Anyhow, lots of work on this still to do. I can only imagine the day I
will be able to put my feet up and say my tagging work is done . . . Am
currently planning on putting around 3500 CD's into the library. I'm a
little more than a third of the way there (but maybe only 1/10 of the
way there in terms of tagging). 

I have to say, the SB has got to be the best gadget I've ever bought,
especially dollar-for-dollar. When it turns on, it says, "Free your
music," and that is exactly what it is doing for me. The jazz CD's that
were imprisoned in boxes in the closet due to space limitations are
being given parole on the SB.

By the way, forgot to mention this, but I am putting almost everything
in FLAC, which I take it has different tagging properties from mp3.
