Now Playing Feature at Starbucks on iTunes Stays With You - Even After You Have Left the Store

Source: alanweinkrantz.typepad.com

I got home last night and was going through my iTunes library only to discover that when I opened iTunes, it went back to the original menu Now Playing menu at Starbucks.

Notice how you can still get previews of the music that was playing in the store, and even buy them-  after you have left the store.
