Yea I change my mind. Just reread the page and omnimagic lets you control etherel energy and neither have any limitationsÂ
Also another question regarding  aether since they aren't being answered on the main page. Can you have black hole and supernova inducement since it let's you control the forces of the universe.
Most likely yes, but so could an Omni-Magic user.
Okay, allow me to briefly sum this up, cause most of you aren't exactly where what Aether actually does. Essentially it's known as a god mana, believed to be the very air in which the quote on quote 'Gods' breathed as if it were air. Well Aether is a spiritual energy, an escence unique and spread throughout the infinite. A weilder of this element has consists of great power, considering the wide boundaries of magicka, psionic forces, imaginary things or even reality. Aether is the escence of creation in a sense, basically becoming whatever the weilder chooses. And as some of these comments correctly state, Aether is indeed of an infinite supply. Theoretically this element exists throughout the infinite all an equal amount everywhere. Aforementioned above, Aether -is- anything. That could even be Omni-Magicka- which has many similarities and can sometimes do very identical things. Aether manipulates the object or concept itself, controlling that which even makes it real, bending a sort of Omni-material/plane to the desires of the manipulator to create, or destroy. In conclusion Aether has no true boundaries. So if we're going to solve a debate? I'd honestly say Aether is the more powerful ability, though you'd also need to take into account that powers are essentially tools of the weilder, it'd merely depend on who is more experienced. Also who is more tactical. It all varies.
 Finally someone who gets it.

The inevitable push of the suggestive, albeit incorrect, interpretation of Aether has finally made it to this thread. In any case, for anyone who is under the impression that Aether has no true boundaries, I recommend to read up on Nether. Moving on, although the notion that Aether encompasses Omni-magic is demonstrably false, it should be safe to say that Aether enables a dominant sub-set of Omni-magic.
PS: I defer to my previous comment about the comparison of these two powers.

Alright, to be fair? Yes, in a verse where Nether Simoultanousely exists? Aether is broken into a section. Nether is very similar, think of it like a sub Power to Aether manipulation, as it's basically the exact same, except with a different Lore behind it. So instead of it's title as life energy? It's death energy. However either force could effect both sides of the coin, used for anything the weilder wants to do with it for as long as said weilder gave it the properties. One must understand though, in the end? Omni-Magick is energy, Aether is energy. They do nearly identical things. So it still stands that Aether truly doesn't have boundaries, seeing as it's even theorized as the force 'God' used to create the universe we exsist in. You can't get any higher than 'God' Level, because that's on the verge of unstoppable.

You're wrong about that; what you describe is Ether on this wiki, not Aether. Some works of fiction equate the two, that's true (also why I considered your comment "inevitable"), but this wiki as well as some works of fiction make a distinction. And since the thread was launched on a Superpower Wiki, you can easy visit the pages of the powers in question: The comparison is "Aether Manipulation vs Omni-Magic".
PS: What you describe would be "Ethereal Manipulation vs. Omni-Magic".

Ethereal Manipulation
"The succeeding power of Aether and Nether Manipulation." They are basically the same thing. Aether is known as Ether in different circles. The main difference is that they have a slightly different lore behind them. So my point still stands. Aetheral energy can influence the infinite and that's from other elements, to mana, in which is the substance used to form Magic. Omni-Magic is justt the ability to use all forms of magic. Nonetheless It's all still energy, wonky as hell. As I stated way earlier, they can balance one another out. It depends on the user's knowledge and how shit works, what they wanna do etc..

Your point would only stand if--and only if--you were talking about Ethereal Manipulation vs. Omni-Magic, or if this thread didn't explicitly name its subject as "Aether Manipulation vs. Omni-Magic" thereby leaving some room for interpretation. By describing Ethereal Manipulation in a thread that concerns Aether Manipulation, however, you only prove my point that you mistook one for the other.
Now, you may try to defer to the liberties some authors may take with these words and underlying concepts, but--since this wiki clearly defines and distinguishes both--these arguments are moot.
Finally, about the connection between Aether Manipulation's "control of mana" and some misguided ideas that it entails Omni-Magic: This is simply a false connection. Control over mana is commonly associated with meta-magic (i.e., magic that affects other magic), which would definitely be a great advantage when facing someone with Omni-Magic, but it would grant one Omni-Magic.
