Isn’t Magnetosphere previous version of iTunes 8 visualizer? I’ve read that Magnetosphere was turned into new official iTunes visualizer.

Sure, iTunes 8 visualizer was built from Magnetosphere. Apple bought it, and made it look even better and smoother. By the way, I think Cubism is too… cubic ! It doesn't look good enough. And the others are like…unfocused ! I'm keeping Itunes' default visualizer. ;) Thanks for sharing anyway !

Yes, for me, the old Magnetospher visualizer is very much fun and pretty than the new iTunes 8 visualizer. I hate the very big black spheres appears sometimes on the new. But tastes and colors ....

Is there good visualizer for displaying lyrics? The one I found is cover page, I think. It displays lyrics with 3 different visualizer settings. The only thing is that it does not have any settings for the lyrics text or scroll if too long.

If you're looking for a visualizer that is very reactive to your music check out Manifesto. I'm a bit biased, as I wrote it, but I think it is hypnotic.
