Some Ares enthusiasts have shown interest in listening to some of that great Ares music in iTunes, so I've volunteered to convert it to MP3 format and post it on the Addons page.
I wanted to check, however, to make sure this is allowed -- I don't want to be doing something illegal or otherwise wrong.
I'm basically looking for a response from a high-ranking official like andrew or Admiral Grammaticus (sp? or just call him Nathan Lamont, I suppose). I won't be doing anything until I get a reply.

That'd be nice.. I converted some of them myself a while back, but it couldn't hurt to have the rest.

Don't want to bug anybody, but are there any Ambrosia people who want to answer? I just need a yes or a no.
If no one really wants to answer you can lock the topic then. But I'd prefer to get an answer.
Thanks.
I'll send this to the Ares board--you'll probably be more likely to get an answer there. I was going to tell you to do that when you first posted this, but I got sidetracked by something, I think. Sorry about that.

Erm, I posted this on Ambrosia banter because I wasn't getting any response here, but oh well, I'll shut up now.

Slug posted the out-of-game music on the Ares addons page, and that didn't raise a hullabaloo. So I can hardly see why this would either. Go ahead, if you can make it then sure.

Thanks a million.

Okay, I just got permission from the Admiral himself.
I'll start doing some of them now, but I have other things that are, uh, pressing, so it might be a while before I finish doing all of them (I have the songs in WAV, need to encode them first).
Do people want me to upload them separately first, or should I do it as a complete package?
Also, I found some of the scroling-text songs a little boring and thus not very interesting to listen to, so I left them out. Do people still want those?
I don't know if this board is frequented enough for these questions to matter, but oh well.

Upload them separately. That way people can select the song they want. I dont realy care for them as something to listen to all day long.

They never played in anything i have. So i trashed 'em. Now if it was a .mp3 file then i would be able to play it...

Okay...the theme song, "Doomtroopers Unite!", will be making its way up onto the add-ons page shortly, then. The rest will come when I've got time, probably this weekend.

Ok, it's been released as well as that net portrait thingy.

Perfect.
Ack -- that mp3 has nasty static in it. It sounds like the high-hat sound got garbled. How did you make the mp3?
Somewhere in the dark corners of my mind I know it's possible to export a MADH as an AIFF. I don't know if I still have a machine that can even run the proper version of PlayerPro, but I'll dig around.
How are you going Admiral? I was going to email you about something you didn't mention to me a while back. How isn't it going? Also, are you dropping my overweening services? I remember, I was a bit arrogant, I'm sorry.
I appear to be going fine. All my parts are still attached.
Regarding the music, just for fun, I dug up all the original tunes and converted them to mp3s. Five of them are on my iDisk (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/biggerplanet")http://homepage.mac.com/biggerplanet(/url) .
If some plucky nut would submit them to the add-ons area -- I'm looking at you Mr. Firebird -- that would be swell. The other three songs are ready, but there's no space on my iDisk. I'll swap them in when the first five appear here.

My memory is dim, but my email address is working fine. Lay it on me.
I've sent off an email.
