New to Media Money Gold and followed guidance to retrieve album art only to be told that obtaining it through Amazon is no longer an option. What is the recommended way to retrieve album art now? Thank you.

Upgrade to MediaMonkey 5 as it has a working build-in method to lookup Artwork:

I use Discogs. Simply enter the album then rightclick and save to your music folder for the album. Then go into properties and select the art work.

I'd say downloading album art really falls in to the realm of personal preference. Everyone has their own way of doing it (or not doing it) and would probably view any other way as inferior and impractical.
Personally, I download and assign album art manually for the most part, to keep it all consistent. Depending on embedded or included album art with purchased tracks or albums ends of being a mess in the long run with some being too low res, not included, or so high res it takes as much space as the album itself. Here's the general process I follow:

I just installed MediaMonkey and most albums don't show the art. But Windows Media Player, using my same ripped music files, DOES show the art. Any way MediaMonkey could monkey around with WMP and seduce the missing art?

You'd need to start with where this Art is stored. That would allow for advice on how to get it into MediaMonkey.
