(If music has words, I can't concentrate on what I'm reading.) So I'm posting the Orchestral version that I have of this, rather than the original 16-bit version. But it's sooooo pretty.

They are really, really hard to find, but years ago a friend of mine from Japan sent me copies of the Orchestral Game Concerts. They are my go-to for good studying music.

Then I've got the Video Games Live albums (2 of them). Got mine at Fry's Electronics on a vacation a couple years ago. Then this year for Christmas my mom found The Greatest Video Game Music by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. (Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/The-Greatest-Video-Game-Music/dp/B005QW1FB0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1340740490&sr=8-2&keywords=video+game+philharmonic) The Video Game Orchestra and the Black Mages are also awesome, but both of them are more rock-based so it isn't as easy to focus.
