NoiseTracker 2.0 is supposed to be a commercial release (apparantly they have an agreement with the original author of soundtracker).

Well, you could call it a group effort. Unfortunately it's a cracker group effort. There are, however, programs similar to SoundTracker that are compatible and freely distributable. MED from AmigaLibDisk 349, for example. --- Bjorn Knutsson / USENET: bjornk@bula.se or sunic!sics!bula!bjornk Stangholmsbacken 44 / Phone : +46-8-710 7223 S-127 40 SKARHOLMEN / "Oh dear, I think you'll find reality's on the S W E D E N / blink again." -- Marvin The Paranoid Android
