Hadn't seen the film in a long time and really noticed the score when I watched the nice recent edition from Arrow Video. The score is brief but effective and versatile throughout, and distinctly Bernstein. Is it weird that there's been no score CD yet? Is it too short? Legal challenges? No interest from soundtrack collectors?
Just curious...

Still on the fence about getting the Turbine edition, at least the cheaper non-CD version. Maybe this is a job for Tadlow?

Isn't it completely sold out?

Hopefully an official release of this is possible. Bernstein wrote and recorded at least two cues that weren't used in the film, and there were possibly other unused cues as well. It would be perfect to put it on a CD with "Animal House" and Bernstein's 'God' music from "The Blues Brothers."
Didn´t MV post that this is not the release we should be looking for?

As an owner of it, I can assure you that you were probably lucky to miss out. I don’t fault Turbine for trying their best to offer fans of the film something new and special, but the whole soundtrack is clearly taken from the film stems, complete with clunky and abrupt edits and fade-outs (most tracks are 30 seconds or less), thin, tinny sound, and a shocking abundance of tape hiss. Pretty sure that’s why MV’s been saying this isn’t the holy grail we’ve been hoping for. Better than nothing, to be sure, but nothing worth breaking the bank tracking down at OOP prices. The 4K disc of the movie proper, however, is a divine revelation.

Yes, I’d just like to second this thought. The cd is a huge disappointment. Even considering the sources used in it, they could have made it sound a lot better than the rough sounding boot it is.
If you’re a fan of the movie though the 4K disc and overall package was well worth it. Just don’t pay stupid prices to get the crappy cd!
