There's a competitive product out that I played with (OSX version) last
month called EarthBrowser.

http://www.earthbrowser.com

Weather, recent earthquakes, active volcanos... and my favorite feature
is the City-view webcams from around the globe.

Not as high-end as EarthViewer, but there are less usage restrictions.
