Product Description:

Don’t know about you, but I find browsing a list of album names somewhat uninspiring, to say the least. One of the big appeals of a physical album is the beautiful packaging and aesthetic appeal, something that’s sorely missed with the digital equivalent.

CoverFlow aims to bring that aesthetic appeal to your mp3 collection. It allows you to browse your albums complete with beautiful artwork pulled from any sources it can find, whether that’s buried in your song tags, collected via Synergy, or looked up on Amazon.

What's new in this version:

  • ID3 Reader now supports ID3v2.4 tags & is far, far faster
  • CoverFlow is now a universal binary
  • Can specify the Amazon locale to use in the prefs plist
  • Hold down the itunes buttons to forward/rewind
  • Visual tweaks
  • Sort By now saves its setting
  • Movies & TV Shows are ignored
  • Smart Crash Reports asks before installing
  • Auto Tracking behaviour tweaked
  • A few interesting 'hidden' options are now exposed in the .plist

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.4 or higher

CoverFlow CommentaryOld Coverflow, and New iTunes - Version: 1.997, 9/16/2006 10:39AM PST

Does anyone know how to transfer all the carefully pulled together images in old Coverflow to the iTunes version? I realise that they are now compressed in a CoverFlow format, so where do I go from here.

Thanks

Congrats to you...

but...

Grrr....

Apple have really bug*ered this lovely app up!
No longer can you hunt for add artwork (unless you use GimmeSomeTune - even with GST you can't scan and paste your own CD covers as you could with Coverflow).

Where has the beautiful swinging animation gone?

I was hoping there would have been an option to make Coverflow an active embedded desktop option...no hope of that now.

Oh well, it's still better than the rubbish MS offering in media player...just.

Grrr.
