MP3s were created in 1989? You sure it wasn't just some early form of the codec or something? Seems to me like if MP3 was around then, those old '89 DOS games (Commander Keen, anyone?) would be using more than synthesized MIDIs. I honestly don't know anything about the history of the format, but '89 seems too early for me.
