...And the bad part about this is that the more people bitch, the more
Berman will remain steadfast about keeping the damned song. He's
actually berated fans who've complained about the song at cons, and
told them to either grin and bear it, or turn the volume down because
the song will remain as long as he's running the show.

With a dickwad attitude like that, I hope he gets raped *and* eaten by
a gigantic carnivorous tribble...

LOL, same here... though I have seen the Enterprise opening with the
original orchestral theme* composed for the show, and it works really
well. I, for one, wish they would go back to it.

* - It's basically the same music as that which plays over the closing
credits, although in a rather different orchestration.

but nobody had it for download on a.b.startrek. Somehow this one got
past the pirates, dammit!

I found it via one of those peer-to-peer networks. It works quite well -
- you have the new theme throughout all the historical images, and as
soon as the Phoenix (from ST:First Contact) appears, the music swells
into the familiar Alexander Courage flourish. Damn near brings tears to
the eyes.
