Subject: [CODE4LIB] free movie cover images?

Hi folks,

With some limitations, the Google Books API allows folks to access book
covers for free. (How's that working out? Anyone having luck with it?)
-- what about movie/DVD/VHS covers? Are there any free sources for those
images?

I'd like to work up a virtual-browsing interface for our library's
pretty small collection of feature films, and I'd love to include
covers. Any ideas on how I might get them? Anyone else doing this?

Thanks
Ken
