In my case it plays all the time (game play and front end), but I have it piping through external speakers hooked up to a second sound card. I love it like this - you get the arcade sound around you and the game sounds coming right from the cab (I mentioned an app I wrote for this in my prior post in this thread). So no, it doesn't drown out the game sounds nor does it get annoying after a while. On the contrary, it makes for a truer arcade experience!

If you think you've been in a real arcade and you were able to hear your friends without shouting in each other's ears, you were never in a "real" arcade.

I don't remember the local golf castle being too loud to talk, but games didn't have subs in them back then. Now going to and leaving such a place is like leaving a concert.

Oh, trust me, I grew up in arcades that are probably responsible for my hearing loss now.

Like I said, and like ahofle acknowledged, there's one sound effect that's overbearing and really grates on your nerves quick. It's because of that ONE sound that I can't use the 1981 track. (The rest of that one is awesome minus the PEW PEW PEW....PEW PEW PEW PEW!)
