thank u so much!!!
It seems that this is being developed by Apple now. On the “Barbarian Group” website, if you go to Magnetosphere, it says it’s included with iTunes.
Also, if you now look at the visualizers, there are now two. The iTunes Visualizer and the iTunes classic visualizer.
The iTunes visualizer looks remarkably similar to the screenshots.
