If Finale exports MuiscXML you can use NoteEdit

 (http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html)

to import it and to export to LilyPond. It is a WYSIWYG musical 
score editor. Therefore you can make some corrections before
exporting it.

BTW: It can also export ABC music (http://www.gre.ac.uk/~c.walshaw/abc,
http://abcplus.sourceforge.net/) which was also mentioned in this
thread (and MusixTeX and PMX, http://icking-music-archive.org)
And implicitely MUP (http://www.arkkra.com) because MUP is
the native file storage format of NoteEdit.

It can import/export MIDI. And I don't know how many voices per staff
Finale can deal with: NoteEdit offers up to 9 voices per staff.

During replay it highlights the played notes
in red color and it pays attention to the following symbols:

	- repeat
	- volta
	- dal segno (al Fine, al Coda)
	- (De-)Crescenso  (hairpins)
	- ritardando, accelerando
	- tempo signatures
	- fermata, trills
	- stacatto
	- piano pedal marks

And you can attach guitar chord diagrams and lyrics.
And you can read the music form a MIDI keyboard attached to your
soundcard.
