    Lyrics plugin for itunes

    Anyone knows any good lyrics plugins for itunes (to automatically download and show the song lyrics as you play them)
    I've been using MiniLyrics but I dont like their lyrics database. Anyone knows of a better program?

    I use the iTunes Companion widget for yahoo widgets. It works quite well. It gets the artwork, track number, album name, etc. too.

    cool thanks for the reply!
    do you know if it also scrolls the lyrics like MiniLyrics does? (ie, does it show the current line of lyrics the artist is singing? probably not it's a neat feature of miniLyrics though, sigh)

    No it doesnt. I didn't know that there were any plugins that did that. I assume that the lyrics were recorded while being scrolled in time with the song and thats how it works?

    You said you dont like their database. iTunes Companion searches google and amazon to find the lyrics and pictures.

    MrPolite, in-house built iTSfv http://itsfv.sourceforge.net/ supports downloading Lyrics from LyricWiki www.lyricwiki.com. I haven't yet done with LyricViewer. I know on song changed event I have to fire up the LyricViewer and display the currently playing song's Lyrics. It is open source so you may have fun looking at it?

    Almost there with the LyicsViewer attempt.



    Just have to add an option to automatically download Lyrics and pretty up other things.
