"Ending Theme" for me. It's one of my favourites in the series, even if it is basically a medley. I feel there's just enough changed to each piece though to make them feel more closed, and appropriate as an aftermath to the events as opposed to an introduction.

"Main Theme" is very pretty, but has never held much lasting appeal to me outside of the "Long Distance" arrangement.

Hmm...

Ending Theme could wipe out FFVII Main Theme... but Ending Theme doesn't deserve to win, either... hmmm...

Well, it's kind of unfair for Main Theme, isn't it? We have a 1:25 piece put against a 21:35 one. It's not length that makes a piece great, of course, but Ending Theme has the ability to offer much more in terms of development. I'm going to vote for Ending Theme, but I'll be really sad to see FFIV Main Theme to go...:( It is one of my favorite themes.

I voted for "Main Theme." I know that "Ending Theme" is a seamless medley, but "Main Theme" is so much more enjoyable to listen to, in my opinion. I love being in the minority. :)

Agreed, although I do feel sorry for "Main Theme." It's got to that stage where some really good themes are going to be battled against each other. Personally, I'd love to make it four themes all against each other again, but then the contest would be a little short lived.
