Cover Stream: A Desktop Cover Flow for Mac
Screenshots
Cover Stream is a desktop application for Mac that brings the beauty of iTunes' Cover Flow to your desktop. With this program, you can browse through your albums and enjoy quick playback functions without the need to have iTunes open. It offers a nice user interface and allows you to flip through albums to view and select tracks, a feature that is lacking in the original Cover Flow.
Cover Stream also includes playback functions to control your songs, and you can use keyboard shortcuts to activate them faster. If you prefer a more discreet view, you can use the Mini-Flow mode, which displays the album cover and essential information while keeping iTunes and Cover Stream minimized.
Overall, Cover Stream performs well, but it is known to use a lot of RAM. It is recommended to use it sparingly to avoid excessive memory usage.
Despite the RAM usage, Cover Stream is a great way to enjoy Cover Flow and play your iTunes music directly from your desktop.
