I've been messing around with the audio files for my PC games and I thought I'd spread my little concoction around.
Sonic Adventure Rescored is a fan-made alternate soundtrack for the PC version of "Sonic Adventure DX", featuring high-energy tracks lifted from composers Yuki Kajiura (.hack//SIGN, Witch Hunter Robin) and Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy VII).

Cool. I'll be sure to download it.
You wouldn't happen to have single-file downloads, would you?
Now, just to be sure, these are not independent MP3 files of the new score, but rather files you use to replace the in-game music of the computer version of the game, right?
Is there a way to listen to them independent of the game?
Oh, they aren't MP3 files?
Nope, or at least not the one I downloaded. I think they are .adx files, whatever that means.
This was my experience from downloading the first half of the Sonic Heroes Rescored thing though, maybe this is different.
If I remember rightly, adx files are used in games as gackground music, as they can have loop flags set to them so they loop comfortably in game. There is a way to convert them to mp3, but I wouldn't know what to look for beyond 'adx to mp3 converter', so go fig.
Also, this is just music from other games designed to be put in the place of the current soundtrack, right? I have a feeling that the people listed in the first post would take time out to rescore a fan soundtrack to SA.
To answer your questions, the files for SA:Rescored are wma's, since that was the filetype installed by the programmers for the PC version of the game, and the only filetype the game will recognize. SH uses adx files, and therefore I had to use adx tracks in that other project.
Secondly, all of the music here was taken from my personal collection. This is a fan-arranged project; the original composers were listed for their name recognition, and to give credit where credit is due.
The torrent link is your best bet for single-file downloads. I'm keeping it well seeded, so it should remain available.
Finally, the only way to listen to the tracks will be to download the package for yourself. I'm providing this as an upgrade patch, not a soundtrack to rip and burn onto a CD. However, for the indecisive, I can offer you another sample mix.

Sorry for the late reply.
