Yikes using ebay for artwork is not recommended at all.
You just need to uncheck it and there will be peace.
Sometimes EBay may be the only reference that can be located. Certainly not ideal, but I’ve solved a puzzle that way more than once. Especially getting to see the rear of a rare CD.
Quality may be rubbish, but at least you know it is matching a product being sold.

Someone could make a list of releases without cover arts and hand out 100 items to each MB user to find them with the help of Album Art Downloader.
impossible to achieve, there’s a lot of stuff in MusicBrainz that would neve have artwork as it was never released with it.
It also exists:

Most of the sources on Album Art Downloader cannot be verified. Places like Amazon and TheAudioDB just want artwork for a shop or tagging and are not as fussy as MB and Discogs for being an exact match to the actual release.
