CLI is too slow to get the whole track collection, I haven't looked
into JSON. As you say importing from the squeezecenter database is just
one option, muso doesn't rely on it. For now though I'll just try to
keep it up-to-date with the latest squeezecenter database but look to
make it backwards compatible to version 7.0.0. Changing to SQLlite
might be a challenge though!

muso caches it's own cover art. After an import it will show a little
window and try to find artwork for every new (full) album that it has
imported, but you can cancel this process. It looks in these places in
this order:

1) iTunes Album Browser cache - my old product with iTunes integration
only
2) Image file in the song's folder
3) Cover embedded into mp3 id3 tags
4) last.fm api search
5) amazon web service search

Perhaps something is going wrong with this process for you. Quickest
way to clear the cache is to remove the html and covers folders from
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\muso (though there
are some internal references too but this should basically do it -
perhaps I'll make this "Clear Cache" function a proper option in the
product).

It's not there no - I'll look into it.
