As always I think that it has not the quality of our music.  It gets annoying
after hearing it three times in a loop.  By the way: the beginning and the end
don't fit, so looping it is not smooth.
I would like to have additional glob2 music downloadable which will not be part
of glob2 packages.  Users should decide for them self whether a song fits the
game, comment and recommend it or even provide it.
I see this exactly as I see glob2 maps.

If I remember it correctly, Steph wrote sometime ago that sound effects are
easy to implement.  I would welcome sound effects.

I thought 1.0. is about creating a game that does not crash.

A user-friendly way to change our music (probably against their own) would
be nice.

As a comment on Bradley and Leo:
Science-fictional techno kind of music can be advantageous, when I think of the
starcraft 2 release this year.
