Tips for getting classic game music

Looking for that tune of frogger music you always wanted? Here are a few tips on getting it:

Where to find game music online

The easiest method of finding music is online. Why do all the work of recording or ripping a song from an old game when someone else has likely done all that work already?

If the game you are looking for is a Commadore 64, NES, or SNES game, you are in luck. They have amazing players for the data files from these games, and amazing resources online loaded with the music already ripped from these games.

Gamer Deliberate (The Ultimate Game Music Compilation)

Over the years, I've been going back and collecting tunes from various games I've played since I was a kid. Music in games has always been an important thing to me. I feel it can make or break a game. Games that aren't too good, like the old DOS game "Jill of the Jungle" pretty much sucked, can have great music and still be fun to play. On the other side, I can remember times where I was playing a game and got to a spot with super annoying music and immediately lost interest in playing (FF3 super annoying tower for example).
