Tried copying the whole line, no case =S
Tried with Firefox and Internet Explorer.. same problem. It keeps loading the same page again and again.
Tried after a while, still the same.

First time Free.fr doesn't work for me..

Oh well.. life goes on.

Making lists is a bit pointless as it doesn't tell you much (and is subject to mistranslation) adding catalogue numbers would be good.

All MSX
F1 Spirit & F1 Spirit 3D Special is 140A-7706 for example.
Perfect Selection Snatcher & SD Snatcher - KICA-1017 (Snatcher is PC Engine, SD is MSX)
[Gradius] Gofer Yabou Episode II - 140A-7705

There are a ton of MIDI Power CDs which have music from PC-98 and X68000 games.

Also does music that is on a console that has the same arrangement as the original PC-88/PC-98 games count? (Popful Mail OST which is the Super Famicom OST)

Also if you want to buy some of these tracks legally then you can do so here.

Nope, if the game has the sfc synth then its not a pc soundtrack.

A lot of these games were simultaneously released on pc88 and pc98 as well, but if the sound on the album is from the PC88 synth then I will put it in the PC88 section, etc..

There are a few cases where I am unsure though. For example I don't know if the GDleen, Zavas, and Rune Worth albums have the pc88 or pc98 synth on the album. In these cases I just made educated guesses, if someone spots an error just say so.

well I found a site with loads of pc98, 88 and x68000.

you need to choose the musics in the playlist and download the playlist and load it with winamp or windows media player.

here you go

Looks more like a rip from Hoot or other emulator...
