Starman is an ambient dashboard widget that enhances user experience by providing access to iTunes ratings. It is designed to help users keep track of their activities and rating preferences while using iTunes.
Starman is a Dashboard widget designed to enhance the iTunes experience by providing an ambient monitor to quickly rate songs with just one click. The inspiration behind creating Starman came from the hassle of constantly switching into iTunes to check and set ratings, especially when listening to iTunes in party shuffle mode.
While this app doesn't have any playback controls or display, it works seamlessly with your existing iTunes controller. It can be conveniently tucked behind the Apple iTunes controller, offering an exciting and whimsical way to interact with your music.
However, Starman has some limitations. Demo users can display ratings, but they will be prompted with a reminder message if they try to set ratings.
The latest release of Starman brings a significant change in the code, but it's not a whole new version number. Calls to the system are now asynchronous, which means the display will continue updating even as Starman waits for a response. Setting ratings, however, remains unchanged because the developers believe that feedback about the ratings set is essential.
Overall, Starman is a useful Dashboard widget for iTunes enthusiasts who want to rate their songs effortlessly and quickly.
