audio credits

[ToisanDoi]

I have a general question. Why is only the audio track used in a flash credited, and not the musician? Even for some flashes where music plays a huge role, only the track was credited. When the flash gets an award, the musician doesn't get a share because they weren't listed.

But voice actors--even if its a one line cameo--are listed. And they get an award if the flash gets an award.

Yeah, not fair is it :P

In the author credits part, you could list that musician as either Music (non-AP), Other, or Sound. I think doing that will allow the music artist to gain recognition too.

From what I understand you have to be "friends" with the author of the flash which is a collab feature. If you are friends the author can credit you in the author's area instead of the music part. They recently gave it an update with more options last year if I remember correctly. Things like Voice actor, Programmer, Composer, etc were added.

Thanks! Your replies was helpful, but what does "non-AP" mean?
