If you like iTunes and you're picky about your artwork and lyrics...this is the program for you. The best one of it's kind
I have a problem: It doesn't fetch lyrics (covers are OK) anymore, am I the only one to have this problem? It seems to be recent.
PS: 'Lag' comes from the insertion of lyrics and cover in the tag of played track, itunes does not know how to read a file which is 'moving' (there is only one 'lag' per file, it happens near the beggining of the track only the fisrt time the file is played).
Awesomely awesome app. The only time it doesn't fetch lyrics is when I have an obscure album categorization. Even does Japanese artists! Truly great.
Is anyone else getting hardcore lag when playing song?
I love this. And the developer is very responsive and supportive. I told him that artwork and lyrics fetching didn't work, so he sent me a pre-release which fixed all my issues.
All in all, a very nice experience!!
i would LOVE to see this have a scrobbler add. Oh.. that and a more unified mini controller... cause the one thats on here is funky when i enable it with my shapeshifer on as well. thres a white box behind the previous button, and the rest are hard to see.
Since installing Safari 3 Beta and breaking my lyric and artwork widgets I started using this. I actually like it so much I moved my keyboard hotkeys from Quicksilver to GimmeSomeTunes. It would be nice it it could display on the desktop level like Cover Sutra but beyond that it's a great iTunes add-on. Especially since it launches and quits with iTunes.
I'm really starting to like this. The quick access to lyrics via the menubar is very handy. Best I've seen so far in a very crowded field of (mostly useless) iTunes add-on apps.
a truly amazing application - best on of its kind.
