Check out "Mal's Song" by Michelle Dockrey. Beautiful piece with the same chorus as the theme song. Her group Escape Key uses torrents for downloads after getting slammed with bandwidth, but there are places where you can download it.

Ah, sorry. I forgot about that, that aggravated an awful lot of people.
If you know someone with a PC that can download it for you, the files are MP3s and will play just fine on a Mac. They were WMA files, which wouldn't, but they got so much flak about that that by the next day they switched to MP3s.

I can't buy this soundtrack yet (for Serenity) because of the mondo spoilers in the track listings. I hate it when they do that.

iTunes lets you convert MP3s and WAVs, dunno if they touch WMA since that's a proprietary Microsoft format.

As far as I'm aware, iTunes has no idea that WMA even exists. iTunes understands MP3, WAV, M4A/M4P/AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, and maybe another format or two, but nothing with "Windows" in its name.
Back in the OS 9 days I had a Virtual PC licence and a copy of Windows 98. That'd be handy right about now.

Hm. I tried to do precisely that just last week and couldn't get iTunes to recognize my WMA files.

iTunes always tries to convert my WMA files from Napster but then skips them because they're protected. It definitely recognizes them, though.

iTunes for Windows may well recognize them, but I couldn't get it to do so on my Mac. I was able to convert the files with the use of a third-party utility, but in this particular case the point is moot since I can't even download the files and they're MP3s anyway.
I'll have to see if any of my Windows-using friends can help me out.

Enigmatic, are you reading this thread? You're going to buy this and make me a CD, right? I'll pay half.

The original WMA files for the soundtrack were DRM-protected, but last I heard the new MP3 files were not.
