+ASCII Art Size
+	The ASCII art is roughly 7k.
+	You can LZ4 compress it and decompress on the fly, saving 3k or
+	so even when factoring in the decompression code.
+	The problem is decompression is slower (pauses the music) and
+	can't be run at the same time as the music decompression is
+	happening unless we duplicate a lot of code.
+	May revisit if we need the room.

 Goal: Binary fits in 16k (16384 bytes)
