My 1951 AMI Model E Juke still has the 5 cents per play, six for a quarter
sign! It was born the same year I was!

Neil recently mentioned SKY.FM here. They have "stations" for each
decade so you can just tune them in on the radio section of iTunes.
They do have occasional commercials, but really good music: <http://
www.sky.fm/> from the Christmas Channel to Salsa...
It is more like focused radio than a jukebox, but Pandora does the
jukebox thing pretty well. With no dimes!
Remember "three plays for a quarter?" down at the diner/drive-in? I do!

Has anyone made a plug-in or "skin" for iTunes that makes it act like
a vintage jukebox? If not, they should. Imagine loading your favorite
tunes from all those Rhino compilations, or picking the best from
over-thorough "retrospectives" of good but not great artists and
building your own jukebox, that you can plug into speakers when
you're entertaining or can enjoy through your headphones. The
standard iTunes interface can kinda do this with "cover-flow," but
not really, at best it acts like a 1990's CD jukebox.
