It was rejected due to missing license and/or copyright information for most of
the music and sound contained in the non-free data set. Therefore, it cannot be
distributed. I tried to search for this information myself, but although I
could find it for some of the files, it was only a tiny fraction. Even upstream
does not know it.

There are two options left:

1) either a blobwars-data-nonfree-installer package is created that downloads
   and installs the music and sounds straight from the Parallel Realities 
website,
   or

2) new, more-or-less freely licensed music and sounds is created from scratch
   or downloaded from sites such as jamendo.com and ccmixter.org.

Personally I think option 2) is the best long term option, but I do not have
time at the moment to do that.
