I am just curious why anyone is interested in visualizers? What are they used for? Do people sit in a room listening to music with a visualizer on their PC. I'm not trying to stir anything up but I honestly have never used them so maybe I'm missing something. Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

Is Magnetosphere Now an iTunes 8 Visualizer?

Well, the initial post says that the creator sold it to a third party a couple months ago. And buying what he likes and integrating it into the rest of Apple's software is very much what SJ does.
I used to use Magnetoshpere when he first came out with it. It was very good and but had a long ways to go. I haven't checked it out in probably a year, forgot all about it. If this is the new visualizer in addition to the new one they added in Leopard then I will be a happy camper.
Now if they only would add a visualizer to the AppleTV I may buy one.

Ah, the good ol' SoundJam days. Used to be all I used before iTunes came out. Excellent piece of software and smart move by Apple.
Thanks for the heads up!
Agreed!
I keep learning new things! Thanks!
You know, for all the third party stuff out there for apple to buy and incorporate into their software, why a visualizer? Isn't there anything else more useful? Why not incorporate Quicksilver into OS X or something like that?
While I'm sure that some people enjoy visualizers, I'm surprised that this receives so much attention. Even for those of you who really enjoy visualizers, would you think a new one would be important enough for a mention at a stevenote? It would seem from this hubbub that this is going to get stage time at next Tuesday's event.
Ok, took a couple of minutes to look at these. Very cool. A lot better than what is in MS Media Player. However, I do not use visualizers. Most of the time I am listening to itunes while doing something else; rather than watching itunes.
what I want is a way to export these visualizers so that I can use them in:
Final Cut express
Adobe Premier Elements
Those are my two movie making software I use. I could do some cool things with music and other videos.

Am I missing something? Who cares about a new F****** visualizer Jobs, I WANT A NEW LAPTOP DAMNIT.
Now that's very nice.
I just hope it doesn't spin up my fans too much on my Macbook.
this would be better if it could be a screen saver. who even uses visualizers in itunes? don't you just start music and then go about your business as it plays???
