To add to this, I tried:

$ gvfs-open 
"http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/?method=album.getinfo&artist=U2&album=The+Joshua+Tree&api_key=ff56d530598d65c1a4088e57da7be2f9";

..which gave:

Both the url below show an image in a browser

http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/34s/12640013.png
http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/12640013/The+Joshua+Tree+the+mostknown+cover+of+The+Jos.png

..and if I copy a track locally and download one of the above images and rename 
it cover.png, it is displayed when the track is played by rhythmbox.

Is the coverart plugin unable to parse the above maybe?
