Well, if those can be called soundtracks, then I don't see why being CD audio makes it otherwise. > The RFC is specifically about cdrom games which happen to have 1 or more > tracks as cd audio.

I may not be qualified to comment on this, as the only album (game) I have like this is Quake, and in that case I think it certainly qualifies as a soundtrack (since the game uses it directly for in-game audio, and it was as far as I know the only release of the soundtrack). I think in that case it was kind of "free bonus soundtrack [implicitly] included" Are there any games that include CD audio tracks on the game disc, that also have a separate soundtrack? Most modern games tend to have the audio compressed in some manner as "data files" rather than CD audio, and at the time when uncompressed CD audio was common, it was pretty rare to see game soundtracks (in my experience). -Alex Mauer "hawke"
