Finally after months of searching, I have found an audio encryption script. Obviously, what it does is encrypts your audio music. To use, create a file named audio.edat and place it directly in the game folder (not in any sub-folder). Then all you have to do is copy the script and place it above main. I take no credit for this script...It was made by BEHEMOTH, not me. The music will encrypt after it has played been played in the game.
Here's the script:
Audio-Encryption Script
Code:
#############################################################################
# Script by: BEHEMOTH # #
####################### #
#Version: 1.0 #
#Date Created: October 26th 2006 8:42 PM (Eastern Standard Time) #
#Description: An encryption script for audio files. #
#Thanks goes to thephantom from http://www.phanxgames.com/ for pointing out #
#the whole encryption key idea which I was too blind to see. #
#############################################################################
#############################################################################
# ***IMPORTANT RESTRICTIONS*** #
#1) If the audio file is an .mp3 file, it will NOT encrypt the file and it #
#will play it normally. If you wish to have your mp3 file encrypted please #
#save it as another compatible audio file, such as .ogg, .mid #
#or .wav(compressed of course) or .wma #
# #
#2) Your audio files must NOT be: read only, or hidden, or protected in #
#anyway or it will not encrypt the file and it will play it normally. #
# #
#3) Audio files should not have the same filename with a different #
# extension. #
# BAD: "battle01.mid" "battle01.ogg" #
# GOOD: "battle01.mid" "battle02.ogg" #
# #
#4) Files from an RMXP RTP will not be encrypted and will play normally. #

# ***NOTES*** #
#Positives: #
# - Protects your own custom audio files #
# - Gives a point to having a BGM test inside your game #
# - Ummmm.......it's cool #
# #
#Negatives: #
# - Audio files take slightly longer to load #
# - mp3 files do not encrypt #
# - Once encrypted, audio files will not play in rmxp gui, only in the game #
# - The audio file is slightly bigger in file size then the orginal file #
# #
#If you have problems, suggestions, comments about this script then you can #
#currently find me here: http://www.phanxgames.com/forum/ #
# #
#How to Use: #
#To encrypt your audio files play the file in your game at least once. #
#The script will handle the rest. MAKE SURE TO BACK UP YOUR ORIGINAL #
#AUDIO FILES BEFORE ENCRYPTING IT, because it automatically overwrites #
#the original file with the encrypted file. To make this script encrypt #
#only certain audio files such as BGM, BGS, ME, SE then change the values #
#of the variables below named: #
#ENCRYPT_BGM, ENCRYPT_BGS, ENCRYPT_ME, ENCRYPT_SE #
# (located below class Game_System) #
#changing the value to true means those files will be encrypted and false #
#means those files will not be encrypted. Changing these values when an #
#audio file is encrypted may cause undesired results. So choose what you #
#want first then start encrypting your audio files. Deleting the Encryption #
#key file (default = "audio.edat") after encrypting your audio will also #
#result in undesired results....so don't delete or move that file once #
#you've been encrypting or else you'll have to start encrypting all your #
#audio again. This script is more for people who create their own audio #
#files. #

Note:
This will not encrypt MP3 files. You must change it to either OGG, WAV, or WMA.
Once the music files are encrypted, you will no longer hear them while you are creating your project.
You can only hear them when you actually test or play the game.
Back-up your music files before using this script. Once their encrypted, their encrypted for good!
I found a free audio-converter you can use called Audacity. With Audacity, not only can you convert them, but you can edit the music as well.
Basically, look at the music before you start the game and you will see it's not encrypted. Then, look at the music after the game is played and you will see that all the music is now encrypted!
