If education was done properly, or specifically if students were evaluated in a meaningful and practical way, this service would be useful to maybe a handful of smart but lazy students.
Actually, education is "done" by the people being educated. If you feel it isn't being done right, look to yourself.
May because they are providing you with copyrighted material that does not belong to them, and which legally goes with recordings that you, as a logged-in customer, are presumed to have paid for already.
With 1100 albums and over 11,000 "songs" in my iTunes collection, I am finding that iTunes is not downloading all the album artwork at once on a single try. I have used the command "get album artwork" a number of times, and missing album covers are being filled in only gradually. I wonder if that is because Apple's servers are bogged down. There is no error message "artwork not found", yet some covers that were not found the first time around have appeared on later attempts. So how will I know when the collection is as complete as it can be?
(Yes, I really do own every CD whose content is in my collection. But many of these "songs" are simply my own interviews and other research recordings, and no original disk exists.)
