Needs Warcraft 2 music!

I'm trying to get war2 music to my maps, because the ones in wc3 are pretty lame, (except few that are really groovy.) at least compared the ones in wc2. I tried to take them from the game directory, but i can't find them. Does someone know how could i get my hands on the music files?

I woudn't kill yourself trying to get 'em; importing .mp3s is a bad idea. They don't compress hardly at all, and nobody's ever going to appreciate your effort to put them in a map if nobody will tolerate the lengthy download.

Isn't there an application on War2 ( I dunno if it's only on the BNE edition though, it's the one I have ) that let's you extract this stuff? Then again, I'm not sure if it's only the unit sounds or the music as well.

i know for sure that u have the Warcraft 2 intro music in it...now, when i connect to Bnet, there are 2 more musics from warcraft 2....the orcish one and the human one....
u have to search for them....maybe later i'll post their names, if u never played wc2 or u don't recognize them...

Yeah.. Maybe they're not good when thinking of the downloading. Btw, i used the voice importing thingy in the regular version and it didn't have music in it. ( Well, if there was, i didn't see them :ggani:) But it really would be sweet. But when thinking of other music, on some short scenes, i think you could cut the music to a smaller portions and use them. Aanyhoo, I think i'm still gonna find the wc2 ones...

If someone had a listfile, it'd be damn easy to get the music. But I can't find one, so everything in the .MPQ is unknown.

dont use the music from w2bne, the music is really fked up.
use WarDraft to extract the midi and wav files from the WAR data files from warcraft II.

WarDraft is a proggie to extracet files from the OLD file databases of the OLD warcraft 2 version (not the bne... they have mpq files)

Does anyone have the listfile for the .MPQs on B.NET Edition. I can open them in WinMPQ, but I need a listfile.

Here are half the music files.
The zip with all of the files didnt work so ill try it like this
Cd players will read the music from the cd if you open the disk with one
