Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (episodes 1-4) Japanese soundtrack:

The issues are most likely caused by MangaGamer's porting to the BGI engine, which is required for their DRM. They need the DRM because some of the original developers want DRM on their localized games.
>- Replacement of BGM in some scenes
>07th Expansion nor MangaGamer.com have full rights to them, in this situation which counts as a “port”.
It sounds like the copyright issue is only because it's a port. I think that the French version was able to use the original music just fine, as it's just a localization of the original Higurashi, which already had permission to use the music. MangaGamer's Higurashi port, on the other hand, is a separate product, and they probably need to re-request permission to use the BGMs (for all other things, they just need 07th Expansion's permission, but for the BGMs, they need the individual artists' permissions).
>- Removal of the Music Room
Probably laziness because they don't want to update it after the replacement of BGM.
>- Removal of the Mini Game
Probably porting laziness. They'd have to re-code the minigame to get it to work with BGI.
>- Removal of the Staff Room

Seems it's a Kai-only omake feature with author's notes.

As far as I know, it's currently not possible to repack the archives BGI uses. We should be able to extract stuff, though. But we'll need a hacker to repack stuff.

You can't pre-order MangaGamer games. Wouldn't make sense anyways; why would you pre-order something if they have infinite copies in stock, and it can be downloaded instantly from the moment it's released?

If you feel like copypasting every single line into the original game, I can probably give you files containing the translated text if you want.

Added the other demos, except for Majipura, which is still downloading from slow torrent.

Last I checked, Nasu doesn't do art.

Ryubroshi does, though.
