The application iTunes Control is an add-on for Apple's iTunes software. It mainly adds two functions to iTunes, the first is a customizable on screen display of the track that is currently playing and the second are more than 20 hotkeys that make it easier to run iTunes in the background.
The on screen display is displaying information about the current song for several seconds. The position can be configured as can most other options like the font, the information that are displayed and the transparency of the display. The on screen display is not really appealing to me, it distracts to much and I'm not someone who needs to know those information about each song playing.
The hotkeys however make this iTunes add-on worthwhile. They can be used to pause and mute songs, play the previous or next one, turn the volume down or up, rate songs and set a sleep timer. It's pretty useful if you consider that there are no global shortcuts for iTunes by default.
Itunes Control can be a great asset if you use iTunes regularly to listen to your music collection. It does not make that much sense to users who use it only to transfer music to and from their mp3 player.
