Actually, that's not quite right. There are music replacements
throughout all six seasons. Season two was horrible with a "casio
keyboard" kind of tunes (horribly awful during Spring Break when we
should be hearing Chic Streetman's "Everybody be yoself," and there's
something else. Chris is dancing and it doesn't even match his
movements).
Not every song was replaced but about 60 - 75%. In Season Six, none of
the original tunes appear, except Iris Dement's Our Town at the end of
the last episode.
Here's a link to an article that explains a little about why:

they couldn't get licensing/clearance to some of the tunes in time for
their schedule to release NX on DVD.
