new music might be being added, but dont you think we'd like to have it cycle? Instead of ONE piece for sector space all the time? or a jukebox so we can choose?

Now this is an interesting response.

As far as "using Star Trek music" goes, though, I do feel the need to repost something I posted early last year around release time:

So while it might be nice to hear "real" Trek music ingame, there's a very real chance that anything beyond the iconic "rising tones" would bankrupt Cryptic all by itself. (Yes, the music can get that expensive.) DCUO actually faces a similar problem - they might want to use the music from Superman or Batman, but getting John Williams or Danny Elfman music could exceed the budget of the game itself.

So don't expect much old Trek music in the game, ever - it's a contract and price thing, not negligence on the part of the developers.

We do have a jukebox of sorts, though I'm not sure how many people know about it. Open up iTunes or Winamp in the background, load a playlist, and then run the game. Once ingame, type /music. Voila, you can now manipulate the music program right from inside the game without tabbing.

let it be that trippy music that plays from the show when a sex-crazed Spock smacks the living hell out of Kirk.

Dun-Dun-Dun-Dun-Dun-Dun-Dun DUN-DUN-DUN-DUN-DUN!

Thanks for the reply!

You could also buy the Star Trek soundtracks on iTunes and play them in the background.

Or you can try this for laughs

At the risk of forcing this thread over to 10forward here's a rather interesting dance remix of the star trek fight music

I think the ambient game needs more music as there are entire periods of time when no track plays for me, or the same tracks repeat (specifically combat music).

Establishing a THEME per sector or type of mission is cool - much like the ONE TIME ONLY (QQ) Spock sector intro - but apart from that too much is often preferable to too few in other places.
