I got a better solution: bluetooth from a phone on top of the headphones.

I've no idea if legally speaking, that could create difficulties for, or expenses for, the devs. Then there's the issue that every state around the world has it's own copyright laws. I suspect it's just too much trouble and work for too little return. Even if it was easy to allow any music to be broadcast throughout the boat, then there's the very different laws on Nazi era songs, which is a whole new rats-nest of problems. I imagine most modern Germans would be appalled to hear the Horst Wessel song played, but many players around the world likely would not recognise it as an offensive song. So player controlled music playing on the boat is just a potential minefield for the devs. In my opinion of course! Only being able to hear your own music would help. I suppose you could leave discord on and use ingame comms for speech, use discord to play the music?
