There is also a drop down menu bar that allows you to easily access your music by several means. Everything is highly customizable and it is freeware. <a href="http://www.google.com/url?sa=U&start=1&q=http://www.yousoftware.com/itunes/&ei=7NVHSbz4D4fceoue2ZEB&sig2=pInud9sCNRwgyUuX7qr0BA&usg=AFQjCNECqtC0NICUXXPxpiwDcNEbbad8Lg" rel="nofollow">You Control: Tunes – Control and access your iTunes music library ...</a> I cannot check into Funes as their site seems to be downish,

I want to know if there's a possibility of controlling iTunes using universal keyboard shortcuts? I know you could use shortcuts like the space key etc. from inside iTunes but is there a way to control it by key presses from inside any app on Windows? I'm looking for a workaround/app that will do this job. Help me if you can :) Ross,

The problem (for me) is that I can only remember so many keyboard combinations - and with Quicksilver I have SO many set up that an app like Funes is worth it for me, just to avoid having to remember six(ish) fewer. @Brook:

That’s because it puts a drop-down menu in a Mac’s status area that displays the song title and offers those familiar ratings stars to click on. If you’re not rating songs through Quicksilver, you probably have to do it (and don’t do it) by bringing up the main iTunes window and clicking through to rate the song, and Funes is the low-key (and low-memory) way around that bother. Funes is a free download for Mac OS X only.
