When I select mp3 tracks then click on 'Tag Sources' and select MusicBrainz then MusicBrainz correctly identifies my album and gives a list of selection showing: Score, Type, Album,etc. The first column is blank. However, several days ago I could see album cover arts in the first column with possible matches and select based on the album cover. Now, for some reason no album cover arts are displayed. Something was changed, perhaps a configuration. I searched the menu and this forum to no avail in an effort to again display the first column with the covers. Will appreciate if someone were to point me in the right direction. Thanks.

This is because the [Internet Archive](https://archive.org/) website is subject to a DDoS attack. This site is the source for all cover art for MusicBrainz: The bad thing: It is not only the lacking speed, but they also have exposed user data. It is unclear so far, if the DDoS and breach are linked. This is also the reason, why [MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/) itself currently doesn't s…

Exactly.

Unfortunately the [Cover Art Archive](https://archive.org/details/coverartarchive) (as part of [Archive.org](http://Archive.org)) is still not available at 13.10.2024, 10:00 CET.

Thanks for the replies, making me aware that it is not something that was inadvertently turned off by me! Phew! A nice feature to add to this great application is to have a broadcast warning when this sort of thing occurs. Hmm, perhaps I missed such? If not, then I will pass on the suggestion.
