Got a Mac? You've at least got OSX 10.1 right?
You want Synergy - iTunes plug-in of sorts. It runs in your menu bar at the top, you have a prev/pause/next button, and full hot-key configuration. I actually shelled out $5 to register it. I used it happily without for the trial and couldn't stand to see it go away. Hell -- that's a lunch @ Wendys.

For those that spend a lot of time on their music collection (ahem, me) it allows easy rating and flipping through the endless un-rated tunes. It also looks up the album art (only about 150x150 .tiff) via the net and stores it in a folder. Open, copy, paste to tracks for an easy album art solution. You can always look up the ones you want to be high-res via buy.com (they've got the biggest album art of anywhere around -- and pretty good chance of finding even the more obscure stuff).

Support the habit!

Oh -- just finished listening to the iTunes (partial album) clips of the new David Bowie::
I love the commercial.
Lyrics to 'The Loneliest Guy' : "streets don't mourn, empty smell metal(?) -- weeds between buildings, pictures on my hard drive - and I'm the luckiest guy..."
Holy jump-start to the 21st century Bowie-Man! =]~
(and I've gone and bought: Never Get Old, New Killer Star, & Days :: in that order) ;)

Pardon if there's no spell-checking as of late, Blogger's a tad behind on their Mac support, I shouldn't expect any different. I need my Windows Blogger API... where's all -my- features
