To here previews of the Oblivion music and clips from Morrowind, click here.
My opinion: I really liked the Morrowind music, but I think that this stuff is much better. The music in Morrowind was a little bit repetitive and contained to much brass in many places. The Oblivion stuff has a wider variety of instuments in more places, which makes for better harmony and themes. This game just keeps getting better and better!
I voted for "Yeah, I suppose the new music is better" since I do think the Oblivion sountrack is better than morrowinds, but I would also like to vote for "The new Oblivion music is great!" since I also think it's great . Kind of hard to choose between the two..

Based on the parts of the Oblivion soundtrack I've heard, I think I'll like it better.
I will, of course, copy the better Morrowind music files into the Oblivion folder after making sure that won't be resulting in two very similar tracks.
Some of the tracks are really similar. I might copy some of the morrowind music over too for some variety.
Through the Valley" song number 2 made me really nostalgic to morrowind though, because a morrowind wandering song sounds a lot like that. The difference is the oblivion song seems like it's sharp, better composed, and just more appealing. The composition also feels like I could paint a picture in my head of a guy exploring through the forest collecting herbs and shooting deer.

And the Buddha replied, "Why not try crawling into the blazing furnace?"
I like the Oblivion music very much, but still think the Morrowind soundtrack was better.
Is there a way to copy the sound files from Morrowind into an Oblivion folder so that all the tracks are used at random?
If it's difficult; I really miss the original Morrowind theme song, so if anyone has tips on how to replace an Oblivion song with that, I'd be most grateful for any tips on how to do it.
Also tips on getting the Oblivion theme song into the game (and not just the menu) would be greatly appreciated.

Oblivion main theme FTW! Although I would like it to be more... dramatic. It builds up this climax, plays uplifting and inspiring music for about 3 seconds then goes to what sounds like a spider trying to fart out its ears.

yeah, the climax of the main theme song is WAAAAAY too short, but thats one of the reasons why I prefer the Morrowind sound-track over Oblivions
