That's because music quality in games these days take a lowly last place in gaming priority.
I mean I like cdaudio/.ogg and .mp3 music in games, but they take up so much space. Mod music will always be better due to the infinitely small spaces.
I'd go as far as saying that 'mod is to mp3' is like 'realtime gfx is to avi'. Mp3 is basically pre rendered music and takes up far too much space.
avi movie eventually get outdated by realtime gfx, but why isn't this the game with music?
Of the blitz games I've created 80-90% of the game size is audio. And the lowest possible quality of .ogg too. :(
