+Basically, SIDPLAY is just an ordinary music player software. More
+specifically, it emulates the Sound Interface Device chip (MOS 6581,
+known as SID) and the Micro Processor Unit (MOS 6510) of the
+Commodore 64 on your computer. Its platform independent software
+emulates hardware components. Therefore it is able to load and execute
+C64 machine code programs which produce music or sound. In general
+these are independent fragments of code and data which have been
+ripped from games and demonstration programs and were transferred
+directly from the C64. All you need is a supported operating system and
+audio hardware with average PCM waveform playback capabilities. A
+fast CPU and a 16-bit sound card is recommended for better
+performance.
