Weird
You know, it'd be kinda nice if it came with our purchase of the game... like the classic versions?

So very scummy.
Takes a special kind of developer to decide to sell what was free before.

Beamdog is not helping themselves
This should be extra material, like in the classic editions, not sold for 10 euros. They look desperate for money, and in the end thit just worsen their reputation.

Might be worth the sale price if...
Many of the most critical reviews below are very misleading. If you purchase Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition (BG:EE) at present you get a copy of the original 1999 version of Baldur's Gate for free and in there you will find a free 128 kbps bit rate MP3 copy of the soundtrack. This is the same free soundtrack you recieved prior to the EE release edition. With the purchase of this soundtrack, you recieve a 320 kbps bit rate MP3 and lossless FLAC version of the original soundtrack plus 7 bonus EE tracks. I compared the quality of the original MP3 version of the iconic Main Theme with the FLAC version and I could just barely tell the difference with amount of static in the background of the 128kbps version. Unless you are an extreme audiophile, you will be unlikely to notice a difference between the versions, making the new bonus tracks the real benefit of the purchase of this soundtrack version. The 7 bonus tracks, and higher bit rate for the original score alone don't justify the full price of this product, but at a sale price, it's worth a purchase if you're looking for more Baldur's Gate music. The new tracks are thematically very similar to the original score with high quality production values, Cloud Peaks being my favorite among them. If you only own an old physical copy of BG or don't otherwise own the original soundtrack, then the purchase of this soundtrack might be of value to you at the full price. The soundtrack itself is a phenomenal nostalgia driven score and worthy of five stars alone, but this product loses one star for a lack of value at full price. Note: I purchased this soundtrack through the Dragonspear expansion deluxe edition that came with both soundtracks, which is why GOG won't show this review as a verified owner.

Not entirely happy
The music was great (especially the FLAC format) but the marketing is a bit deceptive. Maybe I was just being naive, but when it says "to play this item you also need Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition" I just assumed that maybe it would upgrade the in-game music sound track. However, it doesn't appear to do that at all. (I guess my first clue should have been the fact that there are no FLAC or MP3 files in the BG:EE game directory to begin with.) So all this download is good for, as far as I can see, is for playing the BG music on an MP3 player or something similar. It doesn't appear to add anything to the game itself. So I'm not sure why the description on GOG's website says you need BG:EE in order to play this. You do not. If you just want the music to play on your own outside of the game, then by all means get this. It souds great. But if you are looking for an enhanced music experience in game, this is not going to do that. I guess I'm not going to bother buying the soundtrack for BG2:EE after finding this out. Oh well, live and learn.
