does anybody know any of the leading companies, and if so,
do you know where i can find their websites?

also, does anybody know where i can find market information
for this industry? I think i am looking in all the wrong
places.

much appreciated!

Most big development houses these days tend to have an
in-house music department, or they use the same few
musicians for lots of their titles. There's also an
increasing culture (particularly at places like EA) to use
licenced music by signed artists.

a guy called Frank Klepacki ( i think) does most of
EA's/Westwood's strategy stuff (command and conquer etc.) he
has a site somewhere

Check out Rockstar's Craig Connor too. He is superb.
