I discovered beets only recently but I'm warming to it quickly. Just last weekend I ran it on a subset of my collection to see what it does with metatags.
As you say, it is a bit techy with all the plugins and parameters it make accessible to the user, but that's why I like it. (And it's written in Python, which I'm comfortable with).
As for automatic cover art discovery, don't overlook @swizzle's observation
Quote:and it usually requires eyeballing the different choices from an image search to see which one looks best
I was using different ripping tools but I often was offered more than one candidate image for an album with the default choice not being the right one.
