Disclaimer:
The automatically found titles and cover images are not property of mine. I am providing a common interface to automatically find and download that information, but I will not be able to add or update the content. The automatically found titles or cover images may therefore be wrong. The found item coverage for my 450 movies and several books is > 95%. Game coverage is about 50%. Cover images are sometimes at low-resultion and will not scale well on tablets.
