I have checked now that the new Music Center doesn't edit the cover when you edit one some properties of the file so this is a good notice! The Media Go always updates the cover once you edit any of the propoerties of the file/son (a star for example). Also the Music Center transfer the file as is, with the same front cover without editing, not as the Media Go that always resize the file to a lower image (if it is bigger than 720x720 p it resizes to it). If you have a file with a file with 1500x1500 front cover, it transfer the file with this resolution without editing. The Media Go always resize to 720x720 p and then it transfer the file. The transfer speed in Music Center it's very very slow.
That's my álbum art size, 800x800 , i have my files as read-only

Can I ask how large is your music library, mine is 2.3 TB.
Mine is 880GB

I noticed that Music center is reporting that I only have 1.4 TB of music files on my laptop where in media go it reports the entire thing. Maybe it is not yet fully ready for large library.
for me it missed 3600 songs out of the 49670 files i have

It doesn't matter that you have the files as read only. That's good for avoid Media Go editing the internal jpg but the transfered file to WM1A always is edited to 720x720 p. Check with Mp3Tag reading the files of the WM1A (not the files alocated in PC). With the new Music Center, at least, it transfer the file as is (this mornign I have checked with an embedded jpg of 1500x1500 and it remains the same resolution). That's a good advance at least even they go back in other questions, but I hope Sony repair/improve the other fails in the next weeks.

I've checked a new álbum i transferred to my WM1A, the cover stays the same size as it is on PC, perhaps because i use the magic trick of right-click n' drop to get this hidden "Advanced Transfer" menú where i tick the NEVER CONVERT option. Also by using this option of never convert, the transfer is sped even faster

Transferred trough Windows Explorer or trough Media GO? Which size of cover are we speaking?

is there a good 4.4 TRRRS > 3.5 TRS adaptor ?

i bought a 4.4 TRRRS cable for my wm1a but i am also eyeing the IDSD MICRO BL and i may need an adaptor seeing that 4.4 is different than the 3.5 diameter

thanx
I bought a 4.4 female to 2.5 male adapter from David OC Studio Taiwan. He can make any adapter that you need. Here are pictures of my adapter:
(2.5 to 3.5 adapter is from Ebay)
