Menuet for Mac is a skinable remote control for iTunes, coming complete with Last.fm integration that allows you to send music, friend recommendations and statistics from within Menuet itself. With a raft of features designed to make iTunes that little bit more flexible, users now get more hot key options, a “smart browse” that improves artist searching, and a sleep timer that lets you put iTunes and your Mac to sleep when it suits you. What’s more, Menuet will retrieve high resolution artwork for your albums from the iTunes store itself, saving you the hassle of using other programs that utilise the often grainy amazon.com.

However, with all these great features, there must be a catch right? Sadly, Menuet is not free and will set you back around £7 pounds for the single user, rising to £17 for the multi user package.
