CoverSutra

Hey!

Is there a program similar to CoverSutra, that is free? I really like its functionality, but don't really want to pay for it.


For those of you that don't know what it is, here is a link;

I can think of a few apps that do some of the features

- Global Shortcuts: Quickly control iTunes from anywhere. Play, pause, rate, show, skip, rewind, fast forward .. whatever! CoverSutra gives you total control over your music with customizable keyboard shortcuts.

Quicksilver can do this

- Information Bezel: CoverSutra alerts you of any song change, so you always know what’s playing. Bezels also work nicely with Shortcuts and your Apple Remote: You’ll get Feedback for every single action.

Growl

- Jewel Case: For those who like their artwork on the desktop.

Sizzling keys

Coincidentally What psychofreak just listed as alternatives are the ones I use.

However I don't use growl for showing what song's are playing because Sizzling Keys does that for me anyway. I gave Growl's version a go but it didn't show as well. But those three applications together are a brilliant combination.

Thanks a lot, Growl seems to be what i am looking for.
