    Why the MP-3 format only? This is insulting to soundtrack fans who value the CD version. This beautiful score deserves a CD or CD-R release. Hopefully so

    • Janis says:

      I totally agree this needs to be on a CD. I would love it.

  2. Richard says:

    The theme music reminds me of music found on the earliest albums by new age group Shadowfax. I wonder if its composer was once a member of that band?
