    I'd like to know also. The music in those arcade games is annoying and distracting.

    You can press 'm' to mute the sound on Pacman, but I don't think it works for any of the others.

    Well if you want to listen to music you can switch your speaker to Line-Out and mute it and use Wave Sound for your other music.

    Breakout's music is just plain horrible. Actually, all of them are horrible, except Tetris, maybe.

    Breakout and Tetris are the only ones that have music. Space Invaders uses the classic Space Invaders sound effect, Pac-Man always sounded like the way it does, and Snake doesn't have music anyway.

    If Breakout could be muted so I can play my own stuff over it, I'd probably start playing it again.

    The Tetris music is excellent, so you've no need to mute that.

    Just have mp3s running right before you click to enter the game's page. It will cover up the music/sound effects.

    I'm not sure if Tetris has a mute button, but if it did, it should be disabled. That is the greatest song ever.

    When I use winamp, it prevents any problems with the crappy music.

    I once was able to play that on piano, that was hard as hell, but I agree, it sounds great!

    Crank speaker volume up, computer volume down a bit and Winamp volume to max; you should easily drown out the Arcade games.
