CORONAMINER I use Synergy, but after giving TuneBar a try, I think I just may switch. Synergy has alot of bells and whistles and it is a great app, but I just love that TuneBar will show the name of song, artist, album (or any combo you set) that is playing AND it also allows you rate songs from the bar itself. The bar pops up only when you need it. I also has Growl notifications. I think I used to use an app that would reside in the menu bar and the name of the song playing would scroll across the bar, ( I want to say it was Sizzling Keys, but not sure). Anyways, I LOVED the scrolling ticker and Synergy has said it will be available in a future release so until then, I think I am going to use Tune Bar.
