Is there an easy way to do this? I am still new to my Macbook Pro and like to run music via Spotify / iTunes all day while working, I'd like to see some sort of name / artist and possibly a time display in the toolbar so I don't have to tab between iTunes and work constantly to see what's playing.

I can accept Spotify might not do this, but is there a way to get iTunes to?
 
Found something in the app store for $1.99 called "Now Playing"

Had good reviews, generally positive all around and I have quite a large sum of giftcard balance built up. Bought it :)

Does exactly what I want, Scrolls the name of the song (assuming it is too long to show flat out) and shows the duration. More options if you click on it.

I've been looking for something like this since I got my Mac in August.
