Yeah. With Zimmer around it's started getting a wee bit stale, though.

I really enjoy this type of music, though most of what you linked is too lively to be considered "ambient" in my opinion.  If you really want peaceful, ambient music to study or sit and think or even sleep by, Dan Gibson's Solitudes (http://www.solitudes.com/) is really very difficult to beat and he has been producing them for a very long time so there's something for every mood.

Try Afro-Celt Sound System, there's some really nice stuff by them :) But higher tempo, but nice stuff nonetheless :)

For example :

Not Celtic, but kind of new agey/ambient stuff.
