In accordance with the System Sounds page: Let premiums view and try other premiums' sound schemes and adopt them.

damn kai, that's a good idea, but the admins I'm sure would say something about privacy and so on, and yeah

No, we've thought of this already. There's two ways to go. We could either just let you use someone else's sound scheme, or we could copy the sound scheme to your sounds. The latter takes up more space, etc. and would not reflect any updates when the other person changes their sounds. The former would be quicker to implement.
BTW, as for privacy, we would make it an option that you would have to select to share your scheme.

J. I prefer the first option. I'm assuming you guys throw each user's sounds into their own directory, and have an automatic rename function? The first would definitely be more beneficial, since all you would need to do is reference to the existing directory of sounds that another user may have, without having to do all that file management (and drive consumption). And yes, there is that additional benefit of having it automatically update when the user you're using sounds from updates their's. I think it's an awesome idea.
