Regarding the soundtrack of Discworld Noir: when you install that game you should find somewhere the music folder in the install directory, I don't know where anymore, though.
Simply rename the files with "mp3" as extension and you can play them
in Winamp without problems.
Some other programs might make problems, though.

Oh, and I totally forgot about the Longest Journey soundtrack!
You can download it from the official site.
But this is not the whole soundtrack. There are some tracks which you would have to rip from the game files.
But these are mostly short (Old Alatien Teller, Marcuria Map) or variations from other themes ("The Mural", the one that you hear in the cinema).
Except the "April Dub" track. It's one of the tracks which you can hear through the book of secrets. It contains some voice samples from April over a musical background, whichs sounds very much like dub, like the name says. It's very nice.
Overall, the game is a bit sparse with music, but the "Jacob MacAllen" and "End Credits theme" are both wonderful. Very dramatic, and especially the last one is very moving, emotionally.
I guess I always have to think about the ending then.
It's like with Mad World and Donnie Darko.
