Hey!

I just had a random idea I wanted to share with you guys.

The login screen music changes every release. But after six week, all the work done is almost lost for 99% of the community that doesn't occasionally go on soundcloud to listen to the themes again.

So my suggestion would be, instead of looping the release music, loop the entire EVE releases/expansions playlist! Starting from the newest, obviously.

Or release something that could play them at will. Call it a Jukebox. People would love that ****.

But seriouly, why not put the theme songs into the highsec and lowsec background database?

... or/and add some randomness to it:
add an option in the audio-options for "on login, play older themes at random".
what it does: when you log on, it plays a random theme. but the propability of the latest releases is higher and therefore the oldest release-theme is very rare, but will play eventually.
If older players notice them, they will smile bigTime. im sure.

Ideas are like Seeds. I'd chop fullgrown trees to start a fire.

This is a pretty good idea i'm sure CCP can see the value in such a device and you would be able to hear the great sound track of eve no matter the security of your system

There's already a jukebox thread. Don't derail this one with your "please divert dev time from important things" ****.

Please read before posting. Its not about a jukebox, its about merging together already-existing stuff without the need for any interface or interactivity.

I'd like to be able to select login music and backgrounds in the options menu, including "Random" options.
