Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: YES

This is THE companion to iTunes, and I've used them all, PTHNotifier, Synergy and even youControl. It still lacks hotkeys and some polish though (I can't get it to auto-share covers with iTunes, having to do it manually). Especially in the documentation area. It NEEDS pop-up context help labels (WTF do that lock-icon do?). It could do with hue-adjustment of the skins (I love the snow-skin, but would like a more graphite top), like Audion.

And what's with that warning that pops up in the background (usually behind a window) asking if I want to share the cover with iTunes that I can't get in the front. I've often forced quit Sofa thinking it was crashed. Oh, and when choosing a cover manually from web services the menu will not go away when trying to apply the cover. I have to open it manually and drag it to the cover box (triggering another hidden alert).

This may seem like ranting, but I really love this software and would like to see the bugs go away ASAP. It's gotten better though. It used to be completely unusable. Now I can't live without it.
