The docs for pygame.mixer.music mention MOD files. What kind of MODfiles can PyGame play? Does anyone still use them? I don't think I haveeven seen any since MP3 took over!

This SDL_mixer library includes a snapshot copy of the mikmod library.This is what it uses to playback mod, it, and all the other supportedtracker formats.

For better or worse, the mikmod has continued development on its own. Itprobably is a lot better than the forked snapshot sitting inside SDL_mixer.

But I've never looked into it much, never had a problem with what wasalready provided. Btw, Solarwolf uses XM for its own music.
