On the other hand, I may not want to have every piece of album art loaded
into memory at once. It may be better to save album art in a folder
somwhere.

Have you considered Core Data with a SQLite store type and merely referencing cached images stored in a cache folder somewhere?


What is the accepted way to create a folder on the user's machine
to support an application?

  How about ~/Library/Application Support/ ?


If anybody could point me at a resource

  http://developer.apple.com/referencelibrary/

  ... and ...

  http://www.google.com/

... would've answered your questions nicely. For example, searching the Apple reference library for "where to store application files" yields the answer to that question (and questions you didn't know you should ask about the file system) in the first hit.
