I can see your point that it's an Amiga mag but I've always been very
disappointed by the general quality of the mods on Aminet, the CUCD's AND the
AACD's. Trust me, if you'd heard some of the impulsetracker and fasttracker
modules out there you wouldn't bother with Aminet's modules any more...

Although they're not made on Amiga, many of the authors started out on Amigas
and they're all playable by Amigas (if you use Delitracker with the latest IT
and XM players - get the new 14-bit genie off Aminet or go to
http://exotica.amigascne.org ). These latest players are now very accurate
compared with PC players and *way* beyond *any* other Amiga player of these
formats in terms of accuracy. You can also get "ImpulseDecruncher" genie from
the "Exotica" web-site to decrunch packed impulsetracker modules.

Regards,
Keith
