Heh heh, here's the thing with MIDI and NoteWorthy. From what I know (someone correct me if I'm wrong), NoteWorthy is simply a MIDI creation tool; a composer - hence the name. It doesn't control the quality of the sound that comes out, your sound card does that, especially when we're talking MIDI. Literally every single sound card out there is going to have slight (and some not so slight) differences in quality and sound.
So this means that a MIDI I compose that I think sounds awesome on my computer could sound very poor to you if I were to email it you. This would be because we have different sound cards and mine is better quality than yours, and plays MIDIs with higher quality sound. Try listening to them on other computers; I may be wrong.
Also, another reason could just be because you're making MIDIs, and quite frankly, MIDI quality pales in comparison to 'real' audio files such as WMV and MP3. This is because MIDI is completely digital, whereas other audio files (WMV & MP3) are most likely recorded from real instruments using high-quality recording gear.
By the way, if you're looking for the first version of NoteWorthy, I still have my trial version that I've never bothered to upgrade, simply because I like it and don't see the point in upgrading as it does everything I want it to do fine, and I'd be more than happy to zip it up and email it to you (I've lost the original setup executable), it seems to work fine if you just extract it to your hard drive. But I'd recommend just staying with NoteWorthy 2, because (in theory) it'd just be better, due to the fact that it is the second, and probably improved, version, and I really don't think that NoteWorthy 2 is going to make your MIDIs sound crap, because once they're exported to MIDI, NoteWorthy has no control over the file, it's all your computer and sound card. And, I assume you have a full, paid version of it?
I seem to have rambled quite a bit, but I do hope you can make some sense from that and it helps.
