Just wish Haiku could distributed the old music that came from Be, included such great tubes as "BeOS - it's my OS" and "Virtual(void)" which lamented rebooting multiple times.

These were from a small group of Be engineers that had a band called "The Cotton Squares".

According to kallisti5 (a Haiku dev), they may have permission to redistribute. They should!

There was "The Cotton Squares" 3 songs in MP3, but, sadly download links are dead now.[0]

FTR, Thanks to linked HaikuOS Forum thread, ~10 year old Reddit request could be solved finally.[1]
