Well, let's put it like this: From the 241MB that conform Damnation, 195MB come from MP3 music that was used. Thus, this equals to 80% of the whole thing.

I think we've been thru this before. We're in 2014, we have a lot of alternatives when it comes to using non-midi music in zDoom-related WADS and how we should deal with them. We have a lot of programs (one of the main ones being free) which can convert sound from one format to another quite easily, and saving quite some space in the process, while retaining the sound quality.

"But there's a no-MP3 ver---" WE KNOW THAT ALREADY. The point is, you should really put effort when doing works like this (let's not forget this is a Megawad); this got nominated for the Cacowards 4 times by different people (taking into account a user-made tally made in the 2013 Cacowards nomination thread), and it is most likely it got skipped because of this aspect.

Sucks, doesn't it? Well, tough shit.
