      In the end, it matters little if the stuff's good.
      Damn, you like those bands?? Youre so old. You like the last decade, heh?

        Did I SAY I liked those bands?

        The narfy, goofy names stuck in my head and were examples.

        I listen to things like Jethro Tull, Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, Styx, etc... While my listening tastes are eclectic, most of that 90's "music" wasn't music.

          Why wasn't music? I would consider techno and all that crap not music ( more raping your /dev/dsp on the way out of the door ). At last with 80s/90s you had some ear worms and melody which somehow gets a bit lost nowadays ( at least for those music genres ).

            Heh... A lot of that music from that era was that sort of thing, either directly or indirectly- at least to me... Each has their own musical tastes.

              I prefer the rock/metal alt,(stupid label) bands of the early last decade than the average garden variety good charlottes or taking back sundays or any of those stupid idiotic bands. And I dont think it's because im "old".

                At last back then we had a variety of music styles which really had been different. Nowadays you have like tens of different "house" or "techno" or give-it-some-strange-name music genre where I start questioning where the fucking difference is in the end.

                    Well... I do feel in fact rather old ( although I'm not that old ) looking at the age of people roaming the internet nowadays. If this goes on you stumble sooner or later over babies shouting "n00b" at you in chats :P

                      I would ask people to keep this honest. This is not a blind wish list for everything and anything, it is a request for suggestions of things that someone, myself or others, can reasonably obtain the rights to produce a port for Linux. If you are in a production studio AAA or their publishers to make it possible, say so when you ask it otherwise put the pie in the sky aspirations elsewhere, please.
