Sorry for bringing this up again, but
I think Laurens (and everybody else who
likes module-related MSX music) deserved
a reply... <:)

They could add specific options for dealing
with it... But never mind Winamp. :) Just a
late notice: some of my music (and I think
some of other guys' too) simply don't play
very well with Winamp. Auf's title music,
for example, is one of them. Every other
music with autovibrato in the instruments
also don't play well. This leads to some
annoying sound artifacts. Please try XMPlay!
It's small, it wont cost you much to down-
load... <:)

I think we could think on better ones. :)
But I hate Winamp size...
