Haha, yeah, so true. Few songs used real voice samples with such comic results! Especially where games needed to fit on floppies. It really amazes me that people on PCs and Apples were putting up with beeps when the Amiga sported musical scores comparable with movies.
The coming of CDs and soundblaster on the PC was when the Amiga's dominance over multimedia began to dwindle. Pure depth of content was enough of a selling point. Bit of a shame really. The CDTV was a pretty poor response (not a console, not a PC) but a brave one. The CD32 was too little, too late. *sigh*
After that you could chuck several CD quality songs in a game. Parents bough PCs for their kids because it had Encarta... and kids put up with ####e like Commander Keen (which I admit was pretty fun for a PC game). 1994 was a sad year. SVGA was the nail in the coffin. The PC with all its inferiority, was still enough to please the masses. Amiga was dead.
