Nothing illegal about linking to fmod aside from what GPL weenies would like to have you believe. It's a proprietary library for sure, but so is user32 (which all Windows programs link to), so is kernel32 (which all Windows programs link to) and so even is opengl32.

If linking to fmod is illegal then linking to opengl32 is also illegal.

There was a scare about this back in the QuakeSrc.org days for sure, and it was based on info quite possibly originally provided and spread by FSF FUD-mongers who believe in the racial blood purity of Free ("thou shalt not use any definition of the word 'free' other than the one I choose") software.

But think about it logically. The GPL permits linking a GPL program to external libraries. Nothing wrong with using fmod.
