The ability to change Mount Music instead of just switching it of

I have fallen in love with so many different theme songs in this game.
My two favourite theme songs are:

The song that play's when you are on "Ok' Gundu Nakki"

and the song that plays in "Matoya's Cave".

The music in this game really is breathe taking.

What songs would you like to hear as you ride your mount?

Seems like I'm the only person that would like this feature in the game.

Am i really the only person that wants this option.

My thoughts on that:

1) Seeing how difficult it was for them to give us the jukebox for the house a feature like this seems to be very difficult
2) Turn the game music off, your favorite music on - done! Thats how I do it, so no, I dont really need that feature. As much as I love the music in the game... this way I can also listen to other songs
3) The main reason I would kinda dislike this feature: One huge motivation for getting the primal/special mounts is the music they're playing. If any mount could just play any music (or even a bigger variety) that would get lost (at least a bit)

You want a orchestrion for your mount?

I agree with the third point on this especially. The special tracks that play with certain mounts is part of what makes them unique, so I would be opposed to what you're requesting OP.

What I would appreciate though is some way to choose which mounts play their music and which don't. When I'm riding one of the mounts with the generic theme I really don't want to have to listen to that for the umpteenth time, but if I'm riding a primal mount or the magitek armor I do enjoy listening to their tracks. It gets annoying having to go into options to toggle it for specific mounts.

I'm sorry but the music the primal mounts play suck.
Playing my own music and then changing it for cut scene's is not really great since it completely takes you out of the world.
Unless they stated it was difficult. I filling it wasn't. Seems like the main reason it took time to get was because it wasn't a major priority.

Sounds good.
My chocobo could do with a CD player.
If it doubles as a DVD player even better; flying through Churning Mists I could sometimes do with an inflight movie.

Well, sorry to hear you dont like the primal music - I for once was VERY motivated to get the ramuh pony just for the music and I adore my bismarck bird for playing that theme. So, apparently that is a motivation for people...

How many cutscenes are there really? Also: Wouldnt it take you out of the world listening to a song that doesnt fit the area aswell? I actually have little trouble switching music on and off - I just mute the game when I want to listen to something else and I pause my music when I'm doing stuff ingame that I wanna listen to. (Also please notice that you can listen to the soundtrack of the game itself - either by buying it or by finding extended versions of the songs on youtube)

They stated so, yes. I couldnt find the english version of it anymore, but Soken explained the problems they had with it - heres the link to the german translation of it, if anyone finds the english one... please, help me out here^^'

I wish that the Gobwalker played the a4 theme on a separate note.
