Default Sheet music to midi converters....

Anyone have any experience with these things? I wanna put the Omnibook into BIAB. This is possible, right? What's the cheapest alternative?

I have Finale Print Music, which will take a scan and turn it into a midi file. It seemed to have some funky glitches in the midi files.

I'm 90% sure that Finale 2010 can covert PDF files to music notation, then from there into midi or audio files. But even if it can't, it doesn't take that long to input the tunes manually. Then you could get chords too.
