How do I get artwork/ edit song information without iTunes?

I would like to know how I can edit the song information and get album artwork without using iTunes. I don't want to put the music into my iTunes library, I just want the artwork attached to the song and the information correct on the songs.

When I try to use iTunes to add the album artwork and then remove the song from my library the artwork doesn't show up in Windows Media Player or anywhere else.

I hope this makes sense to anyone....

    right-click the song and click "get info"

    to type in information about the file, click the "Info" tab

    to add artwork, click the "Artwork" tab

    you can usually find good quality pictures on google images if you search the album name and band name...lots of times the band will have cover art on their website or myspace page

    Go to Start > My Music and find your songs (they might still be under the iTunes folder). Then right click on them and choose Edit Info.

    The principle is the same as it would be if you edited it in iTunes, it doesn't matter.

    properly in case you have tried the Get info and there is no album paintings, evidently like the data are not saved as AAC. visit the get info and notice what the document type is. If it is not AAC, you will would desire to transform your songs to that. to try this, visit Edit, alternatives, commonplace, import settings, import utilizing AAC encoder. Then spotlight the songs and visit progressed, create AAC version
