Publisher's Description
From Sophiestication Software:
We all love music. Whether we're browsing the Internet, editing some pictures in Photoshop or writing the next bestseller in Pages, music is always by our side. But isn't it annoying to switch to iTunes just to select a different song or pause playback?
CoverSutra gives you a handy and attractive way to control iTunes without having to leave your current application.
See what's currently playing or enjoy your album artwork. Don't let yourself be distracted from your work... CoverSutra is never in your way but always by your side.
- Music Search We all know how Spotlight revolutionizes searching, in general on your Mac. Well, what if you could have that power specifically for your music? All done in a slick, stylish way. Well, with CoverSutra you now can. Extremely fast and robust iTunes searching is just a click or keyboard shortcut away.
- Album Cover See your music at a glance...
- Global Shortcuts Instantly control iTunes from anywhere. Play, pause, rate, show, skip, rewind, fast forward ... and much more! CoverSutra gives you total control over your music with fully customizable keyboard shortcuts.
- Instant Player Controls Playback position, album artwork, song details: See all important information in a single floating window. Everything is fast and painless with just a single click.
- Feedback Bezel Get immediate feedback in a sweet information bezel when you skip through your music library, alter iTunes' sound volume or when you rate a song.
- Last.fm Songs you listen on your Mac can be automatically sent to the Last.fm service. Last.fm taps the wisdom of the crowds, leveraging each user's musical profile to make personalised recommendations, connect users who share similar tastes, provide custom radio streams, and much more.
CoverSutra enables you to put a CD jewel case displaying the cover art of the currently playing album right on your desktop. Choose between three different styles: Jewel Case, Super Jewel Box or Vinyl Record.

"developer does not honor he word"
Version: CoverSutra 2.5
Pros
decent software if you already have it, if not use any of the other apps that do the same things.
Cons
developer will say "free updated until...." then reneg and charge for the update. When challenged she'll just make it a new version (3) without a single new feature just to justify charging you again.
Summary
was a good product, but the developer lacks integrity. Check out her blog on the website.

I wish the control player didn't just disapear all the time. Why isn't there an option to make it stay? -

Very nice price for a very nice product.
It's easily the best mac iTunes controller.

Quite honestly, one of my favourite apps of all time. -
"Growl support?"
Version: CoverSutra 2.0.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I know it has support for Growl, but it doesn't use Growl notifications. Even with that "use growl" selected I get the CoverSutra notification which is nice but I want uniformity. Other than that, CoverSutra ROX (and I got it as part of MacHeist)! -
"Neat!"
Version: CoverSutra 2.0
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
As pretty as it is, I don't care that much about the CD cover display on the desktop (which is usually cluttered with icons and windows) and there are plenty of other (free) iTunes remote control apps --- but the quicksearch function is simply brilliant! All in all a very neat application.(PS: you can get it until 23 January 2008 as part of the MacHeist.com bundle)
