AM logo for iTunes

According to Spacial Audio, makers of SAM Boradcaster, SAM does not support album art in the stream and, presently, only iTunes has the capability to display album art encoded in the stream. Backbone Radio, a competitor to SAM, has introduced streaming album art for iTunes in their Backbone Broadcaster product according to Spacial Audio and confirmed on the Backbone site. Backbone Broadcaster runs on OS X, so it would follow that they would adopt and support the protocol to stream the album art to iTunes.

I had asked Jim in a past conversation if would be possible to upgrade the library to include the album art tag, and thus allow for a Pandora like display. It's possible that this is already in the newer adds but don't know.

My selfish desire would be to get an MP3 player that runs on my iPhone and display the album art in the main display similar to the iPod app.

Maybe in my lifetime...

Are you saying that iTunes shows streaming radio artwork from Pandora? I've gone to the Pandora site but I'm not sure what to do once there. You need to sign-up but with the RIAA after Pandora's arse I'm no so sure I want my credentials in the hands of the RIAA just to test out album art.
