I agree that seeing that give me more motivation to try and help
adding eyecandyness to RB.

The iTunes developpers have the advantage of mastering their UI.
RB has to deal with the current limitations of Gtk: no official OpenGL
support yet, no canvas widget. Then there is the themeing thing that
force the separation of blinks and functionnality. That's not a
problem for a widget that would mimick Coverflow, because the aspect
and the functionnality are very tight in that case.
