No, it's a DLC made by a fan. Paradox has done it before- Crakdtoothgrin made portrait packs for CKII, for example.

I personally would have preferred they adapted the Classical and Baroque music mod for EU4 than Kairi's, given their emphasis on Europe, England, Italy and the HRE with Common Sense, and have saved hers for an eastern expansion.

What's the difference? Please don't downvote me simply because you don't agree.

To answer the OP. All the music you buy can be played on whatever device you want. They are stored as .ogg in the dlc folder.

Also, the term for this is "third party DLC" rather than "paid mod". Paid mods were what we briefly saw for Skyrim - ordinary content creators charging for their mods and getting a cut of the profits. This is Paradox commissioning music from an outside source.

Third-party DLC is distinct from regular DLC because it isn't produced in-house. It's distinct from "paid mods" because it's directly commissioned by the developers.

The tracks in the DLC are not and have never been available as a mod.

To clarify, I'm the composer behind both the mod, and this particular DLC pack, and I think I can answer a few questions in this thread.

Anyone know if the music DLC play ingame or if it's just some external soundtrack?
It will play in game, as Arachne said. As for it being a "paid mod" no, not exactly. I originally created my mod to be something I could do in my free time that would expand on the already amazing OST that Europa had, and when Wiz and I got talking, we decided making a community DLC would be a great opportunity to have some of my compositional skill added into the game. The five songs are all unique, and none of them were ever in my mod, for the price, I can't imagine anyone would be salty if they enjoy playing in the Asian regions.

I personally would have preferred they adapted the Classical and Baroque music mod for EU4 than Kairi's, given their emphasis on Europe, England, Italy and the HRE with Common Sense, and have saved hers for an eastern expansion.
Originally, the plan was to create pieces that were going to be focused on the Major wars and conflicts in Europe during the game's progression, however we ended up switching to Asia, because of the overabundance of European-era Music already included in the game. That, coupled with the fact a lot of people have been wanting music for other regions, Asia being one of the more often requested, they thought it would be a better approach. If I ever get the chance to do another pack, it may be for Europe, or another area, I'm not sure.

Is it any good? Should i get it?

To answer the OP. All the music you buy can be played on whatever device you want. They are stored as .ogg in the dlc folder.
I personally like it, although I'm very biased. If you've enjoyed my mod then you'll definitely enjoy the DLC. And yes, all music can be removed from the dlc folder to be listened to in VLC, or any other media center, or player.

Hopefully this clears some things up, and let me know if anyone has any questions, or concerns.

It definitely clears things up. Sorry for the "paid mod" thing, the Skyrim disaster is still fresh in my memory. I checked out your Music Mod and it's really good - I may even buy the DLC. :)

I like it. I'm focusing on Europe for this DLC, but I have been planning on playing as either Ming or a daimyo soon so will definitely be picking it up then.

You can decide for yourself here (composer's page**): https://soundcloud.com/kairi-sawler/sets/europa-universalis-iv-sounds

** there are also sounds for RPG Maker VX Ace.

For anyone still curious, you can listen to my Mod's music at this link, I've taken down the preview for the DLC, as it was only meant to be put up under private, as part of a portfolio. However, the music in my Mod is the same style as what's in my DLC, and if you enjoy the mod, you'll love my DLC!
