Needing a 3rd party app just to listen to EVE soundtrack does not look like an improvement not even in the most favorable condition.

And just in case CCP developers need a hint on how it is to play EVE without a jukebox, mining in a system and listening the same 3 tracks for 40 minutes is not a favorable condition.

After a 4-5 year hiatus from the game one of the first 5 things i looked for when i returned was the jukebox.

Being able to select your own song at will was one of the more unique aspects of the game in fact the music in this game helps to add to the immersion, the music is almost hypnotic in that it helps you forget you are in your chair in front of your computer and perhaps actually out there in space with your ship...(although it could be the cannabis helping as well)

the music in this game really adds to the atmosphere in my opinion ...so perhaps instead of a mp3 player a play list that you can put on default game settings, but the player will always have the ability go to the play list and pick a song out that you want while in game, or a setting that just goes through the play list..

Personally i would keep that in game music player right at the bottom right of my screen, so i could see what song is playing (after all how else did we learn what songs we loved, now new players will never know) lower or increase the volume, this was helpful in those mission where this obnoxious loud music starts to play that is in total contrast to what you have been hearing prior to that.

its all about player choice...devs can do their thing make it default, and allow us to choose if we wish...

Please add this back the jukebox and the music really stood out for me and did cross my mind when i was thinking about resubscribing

Here here! Agreed 100%. I loved that Jukebox, because it allowed me to play music I wanted, and that whenever I'm doing something that has special event music kick in, it would seemlessly stop my music to start everything else.

Sure, having an external jukebox makes sense. But it was so much cooler! :D

If there's a way to combine the new system with the old jukebox, kudos.

+1 for the return of the jukebox.

Just add an option to let people decide between auto and manual.
I've lost all my favourite eve songs and I'd rather not be alt-tabbing to Soundcloud the whole time.

Whichever CCP employee who made this happen is a bad'un.

Sorry, but I'm right. :P

Well, i like how music works now far better than the same playlist over and over, or even kust a shuffle.

Although it's may be nice to still have the jukebox to listen to the OST sometimes.

in 2007 i've thought it's a sci-fi simulator, not an "e-sports" game. I'm not a teenager, how would i like it much?

Count me as one more player returning after an extended hiatus who would love to see this returned.

Why a switch on/off? Because the new animation doesn't add anything to gameplay and it's graphically annoying. In other words, it's worse than bad: it's useless. Simple as that.     _ - Kina Ayami_

So after a while i went back to eve... and no jukebox is a feature now?

But let me get this straight... its been 4 months and ccp still didn't implemented it back?

I want my 1.0 ambient music... i was flying with it in Space engine.. for me 50% of EVE is music.... come on CCP!!!

Yes, bring it back. There were certain Eve songs I actually like, and I would play them to get me in a spacey mood. I don't understand why they would take away this feature if they didn't have a better replacement :/

Although can use Foobar to listen to the tracks outside the game, the jukebox is missed.
