Great idea! Riffs off the idea of CDs as objects from Delicious Library. From the publisher: "JewelCase is a plug-in that turns iTunes into a visual jukebox, displaying each song in a virtual CD jewel case, complete with album cover art, artist and album information... It's just like viewing real CDs in your collection!"
One of the many new cool things in the new iLife suite is the quiet acknowledgement that Garageband can now import Sony Media Software ACID audio loops. This is great for former ACID software users like myself who already have a library of loop CDs. In addition, there's a great community around the ACID product that Garageband users can now theoretically participate in - downloading free loops, remix loops, and buying loops CDs that go beyond the JamPacks offered by Apple. Now your only limitation is how many tracks you can stuff in a Garageband file.
I'm a rabid Apple design fan, and love the new shuffle, but as a parent, it finally hit me today that the shuffle looks very much like a pregnancy test kit! First the iMac lamp metaphor now this. Is Ive an expecting father?
