LOL PAULIE

Its called red book audio.

loop based game music would take up precious chip ram.
this is really a bad idea and goes against the Amiga's positive aspects.

22050 Hz, 8 bit, mono = 1.25 MB per minute.

Red book audio, is CD AUDIO.

just like your home CD player.

You can use 4 channel paula DMA for great music & sound fx together. you just need to be very careful and very clever.

sorry paulie.

your question is like asking George Lucas to go back to Star wars 4 and redo all the
space combat scenes in CGI instead of miniatures.
