Just wanted to jump in with the note that this mostly happened slowly in the 6th generation (since space on a CD was still rather precious meaning only games with few tracks afforded space for music, while it became relatively abundant on DVD) and the current 7th generation is actually the first where streamed music can be generally considered standard.
