Ok, let\'s get this straight.
Planeshift is free, and the music in the game must be free too. Do the bands you\'re talking about record music for PS for free?

I don\'t think so.

BTW. I have listened to the bands you were talking about, and I see nothing special about them ?(
I don\'t know if the DEVs have already found musicians who wanna make music for PS yet, but I know that there\'s many good musicians out there, so it\'s just a matter of time...

In PlaneShift it would be cool if you had an instrument sorta like the ocarina in zelda and with the instrument you buy in the game you can play lots of cool tunes on it :D .  Also, i just got x-box the other day and disovered you can put your own music on the games. PlaneShift should be able to do that too so everyones satisfied with the music on the game.

I love morrowind and it\'s soundtrack, but, all the songs have the same basic tune to them, just different intruments and speeds.

Uh, \"krunkest\"?

There should be a folder within Planeshift containing the soundtracks so that you can replace them with whatever wish by placing your own songs in that folder.

It won\'t, so we\'ll just have to deal with it.  Its a price someone pays for changing the music.

And who is going to pay the .mp3 license?
PS should better use Vorbis OGG.

I believe they already have an MP3 engine, if it\'s licensed or not I don\'t know, because the music in the last version was MP3.

Yes, the music in TES: MORROWIND were great, however they were too short for such a huge game. Actually I wanna see music in Final Fantasy style since I really love the FF soundtrack. There is no FF game in the whole serie (exept for FF: mystical quest, which I\'ve never played) that does not contain wonderful music.
I mean, I listen to the music even outside the game, because it makes me feel good. :)
Music does half of the experience (imagine a game without music), so of course the game should be filled with great tunes. ;)

The MP3 engine is from CS, not PS.
And I don\'t think you can copy a license, like that of MP3, and give it to everyone who needs it (the PS dev team in this case). Even if the CS MP3 engine was licensed.

PS would need to buy his/her own license.
