I don't know, but my best guess is that it's implemented using
OpenGL. In Interface Builder you can find an NSOpenGLView under
GraphicsViews.
The iTunes view looks like a set of rectangles in 3D space textured
with album arts. When browsing the library, these rectangles are
rendered using predefined coordinate transformations as a function
of time. With that I mean that the path the rectangles move is
defined a priori but to what position on the path the rectangle is
rendered depends on time. I believe the iTunes view is actually
_very_ simple.

Or perhaps, using quartz composer.

Can anybody tell me how the cover flow view in tunes 7 may have been
implemented??
It looks cool. Any idea about where can I get a sample of such a
view or a
view similar to that....
