An example of music that could be appropriate for Widelands could be: http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Alle+stamenge+donne/1dKJWH To start the music, Widelands could simply open the url, which would start the standard browser with Grooveshark. We should just create a playlist and link to it. What do you think? Top Quote

Besides, as dwarik said, this can be done by everybody individually, no need for widelands to add any such feature. Feel free to create such a playlist and advocate it here in the forums if you feel like it. Top Quote

Of course this option should not be available if the person is not connected to the internet. In those cases, we could simply keep the current music. Top Quote

Opening some streaming sources is easy enough to do, we won't add such a feature. Top Quote
