Portal 2 OST Volume 1 Released!
Here is the link to the music page, and for those who aren't getting the page displayed correctly (IE9 isn't showing the download link for some reason), here is the direct link to the 156MB ZIP on Steam's servers.
Enjoy! I'm about to unzip it and bask in the glory.
EDIT: Ah, other notes:
--A giant album cover image is included in the download
--22 songs are included
--The album's subtitle is "Songs to Test By"
--The artist is listed as "Aperture Science Psychoacoustics Laboratory". Nice.

The Cave Johnson "lemon" rant is just about 30 seconds long and as such is the perfect length for a ring tone. Just gonna leave that there.

As is Wheatley's "For God's sake, you're boxes! With legs! It's literally your only purpose!" speech, I believe.

Actually, my cell phone does too. Then again, I 1) always have it on vibrate and 2) never use it anyway so it doesn't really matter.
Plus, this comic came out before Portal 2. I'm fairly certain Randall would jump for a Lemons ringtone.
Disclaimer: He probably wouldn't, I'm just trying to come up with a response.
Have a nice day,

I'm guessing they'll have two more volumes: the second one generally with songs from older Aperture and the third one with songs from the Wheatley chambers and finale.
Ooh, forgot about coop. Make that three more volumes.

I would love to give Valve and/or Jonathan Coulton money for an official mp3 of Want You Gone.

Oh I'm sure it's only a matter of time until the OST is on iTunes like the Orange Box soundtrack.

Also I'm not sure why the link wasn't showing for you. I'm on IE9 and had no such issues
Same here. IE9, no issues. When I turned on compatability mode it dissapeared though, try turning it off if the download button isn't showing up.

That's most likely it, I always have Compatibility Mode running.

What? I was under the impression it was put in to handle older HTML that might not ordinarily display correctly. But since apparently it's a bad thing, it's off now (not that it makes all that much of a difference except on a few pages...).

It forces IE into quirks mode which makes it render the page using earlier versions of the IE engine. It's there to make pages which were designed to run on say, IE6, work in IE9 (which is far more standards compliant). Having compatability mode on constantly sort of defeats the purpose of upgrading to a newer version of the browser in the first place (not to mention making it harder for us web developers out there to provide a consistent user experience across all browsers).
Track 3 is my favourite song from the game.
And I have the lead synth from Science is Fun -- it's a sytrus preset.
