A buddy of mine used MOD music in a game of his:

and won first place in "Innovation in Audio" at the Independent Games
Festival of 2005.


His thinking, at the time, was that there's a lot of MOD music out there,
and much of it much better than he could write, himself. He contacted a
few composers to get permission to use their works, and (if I recall
correctly) got some original stuff made, to boot.
