ARGH!, I had to visit a MIDI website for some college homework, and I stumbled apon the most distastful site around! all the files were really well made, but as good as midi gets, isn't very good, I have a 64mb SB Live card, so it can't be me, anyway, every page I clicked onto on the website had some really cheesy song, either 'freinds (I will be there for you)' or 'Pulp Fiction' NOOO! I even heard a short snippet of Batman and The Star Wars theme song.

why is MIDI so bad, and why do some people dedicate so much time to remaking these songs? ok, some of them are quite good, and it really helps me, because i'm too lazy to remake the songs myself, but mididb.com has about 250+ midi songs! did he really make them all, I hope he stole them from other sites, otherwise I fear for his future.

Thats the same as Cubase, which i have, I like it but remaking songs is very hard and a waste of time + putting them as a background on your site doesn't appeal to me

MIDI connections are excellent. If you have a MIDI keyboard and a copy of Sibelius, you can play and it scores it for you automatically. Genius!

Hmm... as far as I'm concerned, people who remake songs in midi format either think it's cool to have tacky music playing in the background on web sites, or have too much free time, or both :-)

Does anyone out there actually think it's worth listening to midi?

In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
