I have just checked TunesBar out and see that its version 1.0 was released about 1 year and 4 months after I renamed to TuneBar.
Thanks for your time.

Where has the originality gone these days?

If I start a playlist in iTunes and then use TuneBar to switch to another playlist that part works. However, if I pause the tune in the new playlist when I unpause it the paused tune does not resume. Instead the original playlist starts over.

Can you be more descriptive about the instability you see?
One thing I did notice is that if you use the standard TuneBar notification (instead of growl), then it does assume the left side monitor isn't there (it slides the notification off the right monitor and onto the left monitor). However, that's not a really a problem, and if you switch to using Growl notification, then it's not an issue at all.
In terms of the CPU issues I saw with earlier versions, that seems to be resolved. I still see CPU usage spike up, but that's to be expected. The constant CPU usage I saw before isn't happening.

my one suggestion would be this:
add hotkeys for volume control!!! you have hotkeys for everything else, so why shouldnt you be able to adjust the volume the same way?
this is the only thing keeping me from making this my main itunes window program - right now i am using x-tunes and it has everything i need but the GUI is ugly as hell and i would much rather use TuneX.
Can I ask how much CPU usage your getting? I'm getting around 1% on my computer. What kind of computer do you use, what software are you using.
As for the other issues I will look in to these, and correct them.

typically not a very fast computer, imac g4 1.25ghz 512mb of ram
ill admit my trial of tunex somehow ran out, even though i used it for maybe half an hour
i can remember how much it was though
while just sitting around the app took up maybe 1%-5%
and when the little bar thing is activated it shot up to50-75%
for generally use its bearable, but if i try to open it up while doing something the whole computer hangs.

attentionwandered reviewed on 17 Jul 2006
a few inconsistancies i noticed though
-uses alot of cpu
-menu bar displays either track or artist, i would like it to be both at the same time
-when the hotkey to show the controller is pressed, you have to go back to the mouse and click in the search part to actually search. you should just be able to start typing.
whenever I search for a song, nothing happeny
no matter which preference setting - search function doesn't work at all.
As to me this would be the killer feature, I have to delete the app and use SizzlingKeys again

I'm assuming this has something to do with the "Sparkle Integration" mentioned in the 2.6 release notes.
I wrote directly to the developer when I saw this happen with 2.6, but did not receive a response.

I do not believe I have received any such email in the past few days (though there have been a lot of problems on my connection lately).
I will look in to this problem that you have encountered, though I do not see how the integration of sparkle could have caused this, though you never know and its best to check these things out.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention...
