Some budget releases of Carrier Command are missing the music. On the original, the music is a ~400KB sample on side 1 of the disk. The re-releases were crunched and (from memory) had Rob Northen protection added.
If you boot the budget version, then swap the disk with an original release Carrier Command after the game has loaded, it does still play the music. (Otherwise the budget version grinds the drive as it periodically looks for the music, but the tracks aren't in the right format.)
And the original has a built-in disk copier which is missing from the re-release.
