CoverScout 2.1.1 becomes iTunes’ new best friend New version adds
iTunes 7 compatibility
Munich (Germany) / San Mateo, CA (USA) – September 22nd, 2006:
CoverScout 2.1.1 ensures its compatibility with iTunes 7 and has been
actualized as the ideal complement to iTunes’ new Cover Flow feature.
With the release of iTunes 7, the feature to add missing album art to
a user’s iTunes library was included. The iTunes Store carries
thousands but not all of album covers and therefore often does not
find the right ones. CoverScout has been enhanced to even facilitate
the search for hard-to-find covers. With its advanced Amazon and
Google Images search options and on-the-fly iTunes synchronisation,
users everywhere will have their library completely covered with
CoverScout.
“Adding covers to your iTunes library and creating a visual stunning
library has become more important with iTunes 7. But did you try to
find all your cover art with iTunes 7? Our experiences show that a
standard user only finds around 30-40% of their missing music covers
with iTunes. So it’s CoverScout’s turn. The application is the
ultimate iTunes companion to add ALL missing covers,” states Till
Schadde, CEO of equinux.
More information and the option to download a free trial version for
both products, MediaCentral as well as CoverScout, can be found on
the equinux website at (http://www.equinux.com). Purchases can be
made directly (http://www.equinux.com/store).
