The bad news: it's a Best Buy/Zune Marketplace exclusive. Of those two options, I'd probably choose Best Buy. But why not just release this?

Well, gods know the Zune Marketplace needs *something* to attract people to it. Their lack of video content apart from music videos is appalling and infuriating to people like me who can’t figure out how to convert iTunes videos. So I have no problem with Zune finally doing something right. Of course, you know it will be ultimately be released wider, so don’t sweat it.
On the other side, I am disappointed it is not more of a “score” soundtrack, but instead seems heavy on the pop music. I will probably not be buying it wherever it’s available — I don’t like these kind of “soundtracks,” I like the ones more like BSGs, where the actual score is heard.
I just want the music where Peter is flying! Woohoo!
It looked to me like there are at least four pieces of pure soundtrack. Actually, I’m kinda interested in it.
