How to Add Cover Art to PSP

The Sony PlayStation Portable, or PSP, is more than just a portable video gaming device. It is a fully capable media device that can play music and movies, as well as displaying album art. This is what makes the Sony a healthy alternative to an MP3 player or other media device, like a portable PC. The Sony PSP has a drag-and-drop file system, which makes things a lot easier than having to use other software to add and remove files.
