Cover art is not very important to me. I have picked up a book because I liked the cover art--usually understated, rather than loud, busy, and in-your-face. I don't think I've ever bought a book simply because I liked the cover, or refused to buy one simply because I didn't like the cover. When I was in my teens, I used to make a point of buying the movie tie-in books, but that was because I was more into movies then than into books.
As I get older, I care less and less about covers. Give me a plain text document and I'll enjoy it just fine.
