newTunes lets you discover upcoming album releases of artists saved in your iTunes library with ease and speed.
Full search control: Searching for albums is simple and painless with newTunes. The software allows you to start, pause, cancel, and resume searches with ease, and a progress bar shows the status of the current search. As albums are found, they are immediately added to the list, so you can start browsing even before the search is done.
User interface control: With a fully configurable window, newTunes 2.0 allows you to collapse it when you're not using it or waiting for searches to finish. When browsing albums, stretch newTunes as big as you need and then shrink it again when you're done, without ever getting in the way of your other widgets.
Artist list management: Easily refresh your artist list directly from iTunes at any time, and use checkboxes to decide which artists you want to be included in the search for more specific searching. Select/deselect all options allow you to effectively manage even thousands of artists to customize your searches.
Album list management: Sorting new albums by artist or by release date, ascending or descending has never been easier. In newTunes 2.0, your albums stay between searches, and new albums appear with a red border so you can easily spot them from those you have already seen. If you want to start fresh, simply hit the clear button and the list is emptied.
Album options: Each individual album has several options. You can permanently remove albums you never want to see again or just clear them for the time being. With one click, you are at the album's page on Amazon.com to buy or pre-order your new music. If you don't want to buy the album right now but don't want it to get lost, move it to the wish list as a reminder for later.
User preferences: The backside of newTunes allows you to completely customize its behavior. Specify how many days old is too old for albums to be displayed. You can allow newTunes to continue searching when you return to your desktop, or you can save resources and have it automatically pause when it is hidden. When you start your search, you can have newTunes automatically purge any items older than you consider new. NewTunes has automatic update checks that you can enable or disable and check manually.
Overall, newTunes is an excellent software tool that makes it easy to stay up-to-date on the latest album releases from your favorite artists. With its powerful search and management features, user-friendly interface, and ability to customize its behavior according to your preferences, newTunes is a must-have tool for any music lover.
