Clutter - Manage iTunes4 music while collecting album art
Authored by: ZZamboni on May 19, '03 05:58:25PM

It's great to see Clutter as the pick of the week. I've been using it for a while now, and I think it's the best way to interact with iTunes. I also use it in the way robg describes, as a replacement for the iTunes window.

One thing that is not mentioned in the review is that if the cover is not found (happens sometimes with compilation CDs and other strange beasts) you can specify your own search terms for Amazon (Cmd-F) or to Google (Cmd-G). Once you find the image you want, simply drag it over to the Clutter window and it will be permanently associated with that CD.

One note about d13: the new "Treat playlists as CDs" option is enabled by default, which caused me some confusion because it searches for the playlist name and not for the CD data. Disabling that preference reverted to the old behavior, which I prefer.

Overall, a fantastic application!

Thanks, ZZamboni! That "Treat playlists as CDs" behavior was causing me quite a bit of confusion.
