According to the developer, Cover Stream 2.0 brings many new features and improvements, including a new icon and exquisite graphics and better performance with 75 percent less memory utilization and faster sync with iTunes. Among the other new features are a convenient and uncluttered playlist filter, accessible right from the window title bar, and a search-as-you-type filter. The flipping window has been replaced by a seamlessly integrated songs browser, letting users pick a track from a favorite album or playlist without even leaving the Cover Flow. In addition, version 2.0 also adds a convenient info bar, featuring Now Playing details and track progress, Apple-flavored bezels, desktop artwork, an improved menu bar item with player controls and antialiased artwork, scrolling text notifications, an extended dock menu, and more. Cover Stream requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later and iTunes 7.5 or later and costs 15€.
