I just purchased Descent 3. It's taking ages to download, so I downloaded both its soundtracks in the mean time. But what's the difference between the two? They both sound similar, but one has much shorter tracks. One is labeled as the Soundtrack, another as the Original Game Soundtrack. What's the difference between the two? Why isn't there just one like most games? Anybody know?
Either way, they both sound amazing. I'm looking forward to playing the game too.

The "in-game" soundtrack is taken directly from the game music. The tracks are very short, as they are meant to be looped.
The "original" soundtrack is based on the in-game soundtrack, but remixed to be full-length songs instead instead short loops (some sound effects from the game get thrown in here and there too). Not all levels are represented in this soundtrack.
Thanks a lot, mate. That really clears it up.
