Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

This is a shining example of the kind of software you show to a PC-based friend who doesn't understand why a "bright guy like you" "wastes money" on an "overpriced toy" like a Macintosh.

Because not only can a Mac user do everything that a PC can, but Mac Users have more fun, because of people like this developer.

Useful? Marginally. Improvable? Definitely. A total, boffo, gas to play with? Abso-freakin'-lutely positively!

I'd like to see it share album art with iTunes. I notice that when CoverFlow gets artwork, it does not apply it to the corresponding album in iTunes.

I'd like to see it have the ability to go out and grab artwork and apply it to the library without my interaction, but maybe pending my approval. Kind of like some of the iEatbrainz or mpFreaker functionality. Rather than a ReadMe, I'd like to see this info in "Help"

Then again, I'd like a head of thick and wavy hair. I'll live with what I got.

I should add, that I note this is a "tech demo." I hope that when it reaches "final" there will not be a fee for this app. As cute as it is, I would not pay for this "toy." That said, more as a discussion provoker than a criticism, I would consider a voluntary donation for later versions.

If you have not tried this yet, give it a go. Who knew that less than a 400k download could be so much fun since 1994?
