Well, adding a personal touch to material is something to consider when remaking everything from scratch. And up to now, it's going slowly, but the assets are accumulating. It's more fun to create work based on another rather than just copy-paste the stuff, if you ask me. As for music, when we have talent like we do on the team, I don't know why we should use original music. Especially when that particular area of creative work is very volatile when it comes to copyright infringement. I don't want the RIAA or any other coming down on us in flames because we used music we didn't have permission to use.
Oh and last thing, judging by where this thread is headed too, these matters should be discussed in the private forum.
