[Freeciv-Dev] Re: MP3 Patent Issues

[Dan Gohman <gohmandj@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think someone mentioned this already, but why does freeciv need to have
music-playing capabilities? There already exist many fine players for many
audio formats. How would freeciv with mp3 support (or ogg or whatever) be
better then running (your favorite mp3 player here) in the background?

When discussion about sound support in freeciv was initially raised, I
thought people were referring to sound-effects, which would be a nice
addition to the clients.
