--- Comment #2 from Owen Leonard <oleonard at myacpl.org> ---
To be very specific, the image code only works with ISBNs because the image
path for Amazon covers contains the actual ISBN:

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/0385334206.01.MZZZZZZZ.jpg

...where 0385334206 is the ISBN.

> CUP in that case is : 841887006255
> And if I search it in Amazon the movie exist...

> keywords=841887006255&x=0&y=0

In cases like the above example where there isn't an ISBN, Amazon links the
image using their own number, ASIN:

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000CPHAA6.01.MZZZZZZZ.jpg

There isn't any way to guess that number based on standard bibliographic
information, and anyway the number wouldn't be valid for pulling the cover from
other sources like Google Books or OpenLibrary.
