New sound engine for game editor?

[Game A Gogo]

Recently in my audio programming class, we've starting working with a library called FMOD, it's really wonderful! It's fast, easy and portable!
I'm pretty sure it supports all of what GE supports and more! This would most likely fix the music/audio problem with Linux as well!

Makslane, akr or sky, please check it out You even have custom dsp effects and everything! The only thing you need to include with your game is a dll, FMod can do both hardware and software mixing flawlessly!

I suppose GE would use FMod ex programmer's API, Fmod designer also provide a really easy to way to implement sounds that don't sound simple

I could try adding it into GE myself, but I rather wait until I get a little more programming under my belt, I feel like I wouldn't be able to understand how GE works just yet But if you have questions about it, please ask! I can always ask my teacher if there are things I cannot answer

Oh, I think I forgot to mention... It's completely free!!

It definitely looks interesting, but is it really free? It has a commercial license that sounds like there might be a problem.

This license is intended for titles using FMOD that charge money, directly or indirectly.

If I'm reading the legalease correctly, gE makes money indirectly (selling licenses) which might require a commercial license. But, if that isn't the case, are gE users who make games and release them commercially also bound by the license? I would assume so, but perhaps I'm reading it wrong.

Perhaps it's something that should be asked directly? My teacher told me it was free, which is why I guess I gave erroneous information, sorry!
