I can't be the only one who wants one. Yes CCP, some people still collect CDs. But that's not it. I know I can listen to the EVE soundtrack on soundcloud. I know you're going to link it as a standard response. But I just want the soundtrack of Eve physically because it's a damn good soundtrack, and aside from a beautiful artbook, the soundtrack of a game is the second piece of merchandise I would purchase from a great game. I know there was a soundtrack CD release in 2004, that's only 14 tracks though, there's plenty of great new ones since then. I can see a couple of reasons people might give for it not being made: 1. It's all on soundcloud. Why would you want a physical disk? - For the same reason I would buy a physical disk of a game over a digital version. It's an actual physical object, with art, inserts, etc. 2. CDs are obsolete - Not really, in fact their sales have gone up in recent years. CDs remain similar to, and often greater than digital sales. 3. Why though? - Why would you buy an art book of eve? It looks nice, despite the fact you can look at most of the art online. Why would I buy a soundtrack of eve? It sounds nice, despite the fact I can listen to the tracks online. 4. Because they're always adding new music. - Yes, and musicians are always writing new music, this doesn't mean they can't release a compilation album occasionally. 5. You could just burn a disk of the tracks - Yes, but that will be on a dollar store CD-R with marker on it saying "Eve soundtrack". Not exactly what I'm looking for. So while we're on this yearly deal of making cool pieces of merchandise (EVE Source in 2014, Art of New Eden in 2015) can we get a full original soundtrack? Pretty damn simple, I'd be open to paying $40 for a 3-4 disk eve soundtrack with all the ambient music, the complete mission upbeat tracks (this time with actual names for the songs, not just Gallente theme 1) and all the title themes (Inferno theme, incursion theme, etc.) for each release. To be honest, I don't know why it doesn't already exist. Is there some CD hater at CCP preventing it from happening? TunDraGon ~ Low sec piracy since 2003 ~ Youtube ~ Join Us
Warde Guildencrantz TunDraGon Project.Mayhem. 1217	Posted - 2016.03.04 16:20:15 - [2] - Quote I think the reason might be the sheer volume of ambient tracks available. But they could just do a survey to see which people like best to narrow it down. Or really, just make a high-end 8 disk soundtrack or something. People will want it. Just like they would pay hundreds of dollars for a floating Nyx. TunDraGon ~ Low sec piracy since 2003 ~ Youtube ~ Join Us

I guess some people just like dropping $40 for the same thing. Atomic Virulent wrote: Just download the HighQuality from soundcloud. It's better than a hard copy and u can't scratch it... Welcome to the 21st Century u LUDDITE!! Read the first post please. Ripping the tracks from soundcloud is not a collector's item, that's what people are looking for.
