Given this was presumably for Midway (they published all the Spy Hunter ports and emulations that I'm aware of), they had full rights to the game.

Eh, I've been in the business for a long time and I didn't anticipate while reading that that the publisher would go after a dude for posting some wav files from a PCB.

When I'm doing work on contract it typically doesn't occur to me to hide how I did stuff. Heck, I thought his solution was a little clever and if I were him I probably would've done some bragging too.

That all said, he could have used MAME there too. The music and sound f/x are separate chips with separate volume sliders in the ~ menu so with an invincibility cheat you could pretty easily collect a complete loop of the music and then the various sounds.
