Is it patented?
editI'm wondering if DirectMusic is patented... is there anything that would stop somebody from making an open-source library that played DirectMusic files? - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:20, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
- It looks like Patent #5,753,843 might indeed cover DirectMusic... - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:36, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
My edit considered vandalism?
editMy last edit on this page was a simple grammar fix, but was rolled back by Sladen and marked as vandalism! I am now reverting to my original edit. Sladen, please give a reason for your rollbacks, especially if you are going to label them as vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tolkien fan (talk • contribs) 20:17, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
- I'm just making a note here for the record: there was no such edit by Sladen. Tolkien fan actually reverted his(?) own edit by mistake to a previous version by Sladen (but he since realized this). - furrykef (Talk at me) 02:48, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Dead links
editIt seems Microsoft removed all DirectMusic-related downloads (DirectMusic Producer, demo projects, etc). Should it be added to article? 176.212.22.82 (talk) 15:37, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Deprecation
editThe article actually starts by saying that DirectMusic is deprecated, but no mention whatsoever is made of the replacement technology. It seems very hard to find this type of info on the internet, so... anyone? 87.142.102.66 (talk) 21:05, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
As far as I am aware there was no replacement technology. This was a great shame for those of us who loved its capabilities. I've not seen anything like it since.
