After stopping by this thread several hours ago, I put on my Alexandre Desplat playlist and have been playing his music ever since:
"Coco Before Chanel"
"The King's Speech"
"The Twilight Saga: New Moon"
"The Ides of March"
"Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close"
"The Painted Veil"
It's been a pleasure, and I'm reminded of how I had blamed Desplat for the failures of "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" when I SHOULD have blamed the story -- there probably isn't a composer who could have rescued it, not even Carter Burwell, whose music from the first film I missed so much that it blinded me to who was to blame for the failures of "New Moon."
I'll be giving serious thought to downloading his music for "Philomena."
As for the question above about the graphics when you buy from, say, iTunes or Amazon, each track usually has the album cover, but I've never downloaded liner notes booklets, since I don't normally create CDs of the music I've bought by downloads, except occasional compilations. What do others here do?

So this is gonna be the first academy award nominated score not available on cd and just on mp3?
Up was not only nominated but won and was download-only till Intrada finally issued a CD a few years later.

I think HER may be the first film nominated for Picture, Score AND Song with no physical soundtrack release, but I could certainly be wrong.
Glad -- if not surprised -- that there may be a commercial PHILMOMENA CD on the way. Only surprised it took so long.

It's probably to coincide with the DVD release.
As for your comment about HER, would you count MILAGRO BEANFIELD WAR? The suite on Dave Grusin's "Migration" CD was a rerecording.

I specified picture AND score AND song.

This makes March 4 a 2-Desplat-Day, with the Grand Budapest Hotel CD coming out that day as well. And that makes 3 Desplat CDs within a month, with Monuments Men on 2/4. Sweet!

So I did some quickie research, and here's my list of films that were nominated for Picture AND Score AND Song. As far as I can tell, the last time before HER that a film received nominations in all three categories and did not recieve a physical soundtrack release was LOVE IS A MANY-SPLENDORED THING back in 1955, when soundtracks were pretty darn rare in general (I know, it did receive a CD release about a half-century later):
THE GAY DIVORCEE
ALEXANDER’S RAGTIME BAND
THE WIZARD OF OZ
ANCHORS AWEIGH
THE BELLS OF ST. MARY’S
HIGH NOON
LOVE IS A MANY-SPLENDORED THING
GIGI
THE ALAMO
MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY
MARY POPPINS
DOCTOR DOLITTLE
FUNNY GIRL
BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID
A TOUCH OF CLASS
THE TOWERING INFERNO
THE COLOR PURPLE
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
GOOD WILL HUNTING
TITANIC
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING
SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
127 HOURS
LIFE OF PI
