I downloaded an MPEG 2 file of a Severed Heads remix a while back, and was
able to decode and play it on the Amiga. Take a look around AmiNet. The
main site is on
http://wuarchive.wustl.edu/, I think pub/aminet. It took
about 18 hours to decode a 4.5M file into a 45M file on a 25MHz 68030, and
the punch line was the remix was lame.
