A ten-second search on Google provides an huge list of free (illegal) download sites. The industry is pretty much encouraging this in preference to legal purchases.

From what I've been able to find out the total amount of written music for AOE is tiny compared to any of the previous Movies.
I know some people like that audio consistency of the Movies, but it looks like Jablonsky had many of his best ideas in 2007 (by copying The Magnificent Seven score).
The Dinobots deserved their own much more distinct theme.
Bay needs to be much braver with the scores he commissions and have less of the generic music that so plagues Marvel Movies in particular but blockbusters in general these days.
I don't think Steve was given barely any time to write them either which never helps either - That used to be the reason why Videogame Music sometimes sucked more than it needed to due to a "lack of time".
I'm happy with Steve's work - just give the guy more time, let him interact with the writers and CGI artists, give him the story boards and tell him to let loose a bit.
I know he can do better than 'Bland' if allowed to, I don't think his post 2007 Transformers scores are bad all of them have some good in them - just that they are not as good as some of his Videogame scores have been I feel when taken as a whole and as contentious as it might be I also prefer the TF Prime TV shows's score too to the Movie Music when taken as a whole not that I dislike Steve's work I listened to him before he even got the Transformers Gig much as I did Michael Giacchino before he got much more well known.
I did hear something once that one reason why score's (and music in general) sometimes vanish is to do with having to pay an artist more if the music sells over a pre-set amount so the music is withdrawn to avoid higher royalties having to be paid to them.
I don't know if that is relevant though in the case of Steve.
