I like the song it comes with, in surround sound. Sounds awesome in 5.1

Where else could I find music like this?

wow, that does sound awsom. I can't figure out how the premix thing works, all it shows is similar tracks in the browser, kind of not what it says it does.

I'm waiting for Creative X-Fi sound card for both music & games. Even on my cheap 2.1 system, the virtual 5.1 surround sound demo was amazing!
