AoE1 had two different sets of music, one in .mid format, and another in Redbook audio format. They were completely different tracks, not just different formats of the same thing.
However, AoE1:RoR only came with one set of music (the .mid)? I have the collector's edition (which is on DVD and so did not contain any redbook audio for either game, but I also got AoE 1 free in CD v1.0 format in a box of cereal lol, so I know the original's redbook audio from that), so I haven't heard the redbook audio, but as far as my youtube searching has shown me, the Redbook audio in RoR was identical to that of the .mid files.
Why is that? Why make 2 sets of music for AoE1, but only 1 set of music for RoR?
StormComing (to me): "Seems like you're way under-ranked"
