Well if anyone knows any websites where you can get roalty and fee free music, legal for use in a mission, then they should post it here. Otherwise, yeah, all good things must come to an end.  :(

edit: removed link... Thought I found some free downloads. they wanted $100 a CD but you could use their stuff royalty free. However, I won't advise spending $100 on a mission... ::)

Might I add another possible solution. I am unsure of the age of some of the mission makers, but if you take a night away from OFP and hit a local music scene you might find a band or two willing to allow in writing use of their music. As an ex-band member, struggling artists were always quick to allow anything that might mean exposure.
They may even write something specifically for your mission taking inspiration from your mission idea. Again, this is assuming you are interested or have a local music scene.

I just visited a few band websites and some of them had lo-quality downloads available (good enough for OFP) and get this.......

I could not find ANY legal statement restricting distribution. I am assuming they must figure that if they offer a lo-quality dld that everyones going to distribute anyway. So perhaps these 'selected' tracks might be available for use and distro?

Search some of your fav band sites and confirm if you could find any that do the same.
