Nevertheless, it looks very good. MK Urk…Mac only although I believe Windows Vista will support something similar in windows media player next year. Nevertheless, it looks very good.

At least, I can't get it to work on 10.3.9. On a related note (but not quite as cool) is Jewelcase by Optical alley (http://www.opticalalchemy.com/). It's a visualizer plugin that shows a 3D (OpenGL) jewelcase with the album art of the currently playing track. It can rotate vertically and horizontally, and on the back of the case it will show all the tracks for a given album. Not terribly useful, really, except maybe for kiosks and at parties, but kinda nifty none the less. Althought it doesn’t say so on their site, I believe CoverFlow is for Tiger only.

(More specifically iPod Photos.) I can see the click wheel working nicely for when scrubbing through the album covers. It would be fun if this interface could somehow be adapted to the iPod.
