- That's the way it is with all Amiga versions of known songs, be it
- MODs or SMUSses.
-
- Probably because it is done by people who have superficial knowledge
- of music (Pretty natural, we can't all be Mozarts) and/or don't care to be
- too perfect. The other ones either make own songs.. or don't make MODs
- since MODs _are_ a very restricted form of music notation.
-
- It has some other advantages, but they usually don't suffice for the
- professional musician to switch. I'm talking about the basic matrix
- type concept of trackers.
