 "M" and Deluxe Music both play music, but they are not at all
comparable.  M is kind of like a fancy version of music mouse--it
composes music in response to parameters you set, mouse movements,
patterns you input, etc.  It is a solid program, and is worth it if
you like this kind of stuff.  DMCS is more of a simple music
notation editor and player.  I use it mostly to transcribe music
from records.  If you want the music notation abilities, look at
copyist, which has been recommended to me.  If you want something
just to play the music, Sonix is the only program comparable to
DMCS. Copyist does not play music by itself- you need the sequencer
software too, I believe. And of course, as has been recently flamed
here, there are any number of sequencer type of programs available
for the amiga.
