Album artwork for "Internet audio stream" kind

Hello

My question is - how to assign an album artwork to "Internet audio stream" kind? I have several internet radio streams and none of them have an artwork. It would look nicer in Cover Flow as opposed to default grey square with a note on it.

The Artwork tab in "Get Info" window is greyed out, drag'n'drop an image onto square window in bottom left corner doesn't work.

Well, thank you!

How it worked for me: I added a matching album and artist tags to some random track in the library and my stream. Then I added an artwork (the one I need for the stream) to both files while "editing info for multiple files". It was added to both files. Then I returned the random track to its old tags. Suddenly the stream's artwork disappeared. Last step - I renamed the stream to its original name deleting its artist and album tags (since it is a radio station stream, these tags were empty initially). Artwork reappeared. I can see it in list, grid and Cover Flow views.

Hey, this might actually qualify for macosxhints website! 🙂
