It contains a link to sample the soundtrack, while mentioning that more details about how and where to get our hands on it to come next week. I personally have been waiting with bated breath for the soundtrack - having to rely on just the YouTube versions and leaving the game on the menu screen for hours on end so far.
Edit: it looks like the soundtrack is already available on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/destiny-original-soundtrack/id923127978
Downloading now!

I'm just sad that there are only "excerpts" from the Music of the Spheres. I'd really like to hear the whole thing :(

I believe the soundtrack on iTunes (see the link I edited into the previous post) is the whole soundtrack -- 44 tracks worth!

If you check out the tracklist, some of the tracks are labeled as excerpts from the songs from the tracklist of the MotS. Only one minute and a half excerpt from The Union, which is a much longer piece.

MrSwier Why are Warlocks the best class in the whole world?
You can’t judge a book by its cover, but to discover a Warlock in your immediate vicinity is to behold grace and strength sheathed in a regal cloak of honor. Warlocks are a noble species. They’re not given over to explosive temper tantrums, pounding their crackling fists against the Earth. They don’t wear capes like attention-starved fashion victims. The Warlock is the player class that signifies an unwavering sense of self-respect on the part of the player. It was a pleasure answering this question. Ask me again sometime.
I enjoy these far more then I should.

Just read it to my Titan and Hunter buddies. Grinning so hard.

matt: You should make a semi auto handgun. That would make me very happy.
If you did have a semi-automatic hand cannon, would you consider it the last word in personal defense?
The Last Word is a single action revolver, not a semi-automatic pistol. While both fire a single round per trigger pull, the revolver is not self loaded from a magazine.

Is this the only revolver that's single action? Because I REALLY want a single action revolve in Destiny.

I think so. It's the only one that you can fan fire. I really want it, but I think The Devil You Know may be the best hand cannon in the game.

I got the Devil You Know from a random Legendary Engram. There are two things remarkable about this. One, it was a Legendary Engram that actually decrypted to a Legendary item. Two, it was an engram that was not collected from the late Loot Cave.
Seriously, though. Really great hand cannon. The target acquisition and quick action during ADS is crazy.

I got The Swarm the same way. Love it. I'm a big fan of the slow firing, hard hitting machine guns.

An all-around solid BWU

This particular part was nice to hear:
ukas: Is it possible to get some kind of transparency as to what is happening behind the scenes regarding the issues surrounding Destiny, the current state of the game, etc?
While you were asking this question, we were doing just that. Sorry you felt like you had to ask for it. It’s not that our plans were a secret. Sometimes, we just need to put our heads together to formulate.
Let me assure you of one thing: When the game designers stop what they’re doing to talk about their plans in their own voice, it’s a pretty good sign of how important you are to them.
Im sure it won't answer all our questions but an occasional "State of the Game" address would be awesome. I'm hoping for a nice long vidoc but could also see this turning into a podcast or just a written piece. What do you all think?

Yes. Even if it's only as long as their last Dev Notes. Yes.
Marty doesn't have top billing

Hhm. I have always wondered about the balance of composition and music creation. I assume Marty was at the forefront of the creation. Either way, it's sad to see him listed last of the Bungie employees. He is still the big name of those three.

I noticed that too

...is this one:
We know all too well that some of you forget none of what we say.
Bungie is watching. ;)
