Unsolicited customer testimonial

I love shockwave-sound. I have used it for many years for music for shorts, films and sketches. You have a huge selection, easy to use and it never sounds like cheesy royalty free music. You can put a track in and it can sound like it was custom made for whatever you are scoring.
