    Steam: Yes or No?

    in General Discussion

    They don't include the Steam installer on the disc, they just take you to their site to download it.

    If you are concerned with privacy, you can play single-player games like HL2 in offline mode. You only need to log-in once to activate your game.

    Huh.

    So what's the difference between linking to the soundtrack of a Game Boy game and linking to the soundtrack of, say, a PS2 game? Or have we been allowed to do both this whole time?

    Well technically it's still illegal, but typically Game Boy games don't have official soundtracks you can buy so there's no harm in sharing them. SPC sets, especially for popular games like FF VI or Chrono Trigger, are more of a gray area, but I'm guessing the worst that could happen would be a cease & desist. In the case of PSF/PSF2/USF sets, you run into bandwidth and space issues on top of the fact that the list of ripped games is much less complete and that a lot of the ones that are ripped have commercial soundtracks.

    Ha, ditto on the video (sans putting it on my iPod since I don't have one :( ). Truly a man of many talents!

    Anyway, EgM's stuff is always on the conservative side, but I think the source is served well in this arrangement. The slower pace gives it an almost meditative quality...it actually reminds me of Schala's theme in some aspects. Love the contrast between the electric guitar and acoustic sections.

    The length didn't bother me significantly, but I can't say I wouldn't have appreciated more. :)
