MP3 or WMA commands?

I just hit a road-block.  I can't believe I didn't notice this beforehand, but I can't seem to find any music commands.  Are there any ways to load MP3s or WMAs?  There *has* to be a way to have music in my game (a publisher requires it) and a WAV file is just too large :)

Hmmm I will try---- but the docs say the LOADSOUND command expects a WAV file.

Success!  WMA music files work :-)  Thanks for the tip!
