The third side of the Mac music axis of power with iTunes and Spotify.

Evernote
Mac App Store

Basically, whenever a new app store opens, we recommend Evernote. The opening of the Mac App Store is no exception. Evernote is a brilliant free Mac App Store app which allows you to fling text, audio, pictures and video in from your desktop and get at it via the web, Android, iPhone, Blackberry and Windows Phone 7 mobile apps.

Caffeine
Mac App Store

Caffeine is a really handy free app that’s been around for ages and taken its rightful place in the Mac App Store. It’s super-simple: it stops your Mac going to sleep or dimming the screen when activated. That makes it ideal for when you’re watching movies.

Bowtie
Mac App Store

Bowtie is an excellent free companion to iTunes which allows you to control it using the free iPhone app as well as using keyboard shortcuts on your Mac. It also submits the songs you play to Last.fm so you don’t need an extra app on your dock.
