I have tried NoteWorthy and MusicTime and they do a fair job converting 
midi to sheet music.  The free stuff like midi2abc, midi2mup, midi2ly are 
all extremely fragile and rudimentary.  I suspect that Sibelius does a 
really good job from the description at
http://www.sibelius.com/features/detailedfeatures.html
It's too bad it costs so much.  Maybe we can persuade sibelius to release 
the midi -> sheet music algorithm to the public domain.   It seems like 
such a waste of time for everyone to reinvent the wheel.
