There was never a Marathon CD released. The only way to get the Marathon tracks on a CD was to rip them yourself.
Marathon 1 music was in MIDI format that played through Quicktime (2.5 was the version out when Marathon was released, and that is what the music was composed on/for). When Apple went to Quicktime 3 they abandoned the 2.5 synth engine and adopted a modified Roland Sound Canvas synth... they made a big deal about this back then, and the sound was indeed better... but since the Marathon 1 music had been written to sound good on Quicktime 2.5, Quicktime 3 ruined the Marathon 1 music for most folks (me included).
The way to preserve the original music intact was to convert the MIDI files from the Marathon 1 music file played through Quicktime 2.5 into an AIFF digital audio sound file. There was a program that did precisely this. It is called the Marathon Music Explorer by Bo Lindbergh. ( http://fileball.net/marathon/item.fb?571327860 )
Once you had the individual Marathon tracks as Quicktime files, it was a simple matter to convert them to digital audio. Once they are in digital audio (AIFF) it is a simple matter to convert them to MP3 format. I personally did this for myself years ago because I wanted to be able to listen to the music in a regular CD player. Being an audio guy, I actually completely remastered the tracks to take advantage of the better sound quality of modern stereo equipment.
